Water filter.
At the 2019 Goshen Rally among other things I bought a water filter system. My first plan was to mount it in the basement behind the wall in place of the factory filter. I pulled the wall down and tried a few different ideas to hang it in that space. Then decided I didn't like it in there. Two filters full of water hanging offset because of there bracket sys, just didn't sit well with me. We do a lot of traveling on lots oh horrible roads and I didn't want it to fail back there behind the wall.
I looked at a few different options to hang it behind the J-rap on the frame. (That may still happen) but I wanted easy access to hook up the hoses.
So for now i found a quick and easy way to hang it on the side and a 4' hose with the quick connects make this really simple...
The filter bracket slides right in under the water heater door and hangs perfectly. I put adhesive padding on the backside of the filters where they rest up ageinst the RV paint.
I installed 2 screws in the basement to hang it on when traveling.
Summer time hanger to get it out of the sun..

MORryde did the IS in Elkhart and within our 2500 mile trip home it was already full of rock chips and was going to rust very soon. I pressure washed everything and put more paint on it. Then I started looking at how I could maybe stop the rocks from doing that.
This is what I came up with.

You need cam lock quick couplers like this. I have them on all my connections. Bought them at Tractor Supply but I think they’re available online

I have a single and camco makes a stand that sits on ground- I tuck up under trailer - here in south texas the hose and fiter act as solar water heater-
was going to also make mount on frame but I am having some custom light weight metal storage ( truck belly box type ) made to fit on drop frame to store sewer adaptors etc and the other for the filters and misc water adaptors -

The IS stone guards are cool Jerrod. And I see Zoey approves. Hope she didn't start her 
while she was with you.
Wondering... Might you want to put any anti-sail measure on the flaps on the back side? Maybe an inverted T of aluminum flat stock (if you care to weld aluminum).

Ya Jim she was helping.
Thanks for the advice to put more paint on it all, by the way !!

They are pretty firm as is but I might do something to secure it a bit more if needed.

Beat me to it. That’s what we do.
