I recently purchased a 2007 Forest River Lexington. It does not have a 5" square bumper for the Stinky Slinky. The small compartment will not accommodate my hose.I have seen other that have affixed a section of white PVC pipe to their rear bumper.I would like to do the same.Can anyone give me ideas for attaching the pipe to the rear bumper?Thanks in advance.Ross

I have a 20 footer and keep in in a cardboard box in my basement compartment.

I've seen, Duct tape, bungee cords, large zip ties, large hose clamps....and and and...

Ross,There is a fellow who came up with a pretty neat idea, whereby he installed a rotating toilet bowl flange in the sewer hookup compartment, glued on an "el" underneath, with a 3ft 4" PVC pipe, into which he puts the "Stinky Slinky".The hose stays permanently hooked up to the grey/black outlet, snaking down through the rotating flange, the El and the 3ft pipe. It is held in the pipe with an end cap when not in use.See here:http://www.rvnetwork.com/index.php?/topic/127399-sewer-line-tip/

I use extra large zip ties to fasten my PVC to the inside of the rear bumper. Has held great for several years. I also put a 45 elbow with screw cap to get my 20 foot hose in and out. One of my better mods IMHO

I've seen people who have attached a plastic fence post (Lowe's, Home Depot, cheap) to their bumper.

I carry my slinky and all the attachments and accessories in a Rubbermaid plastic bin with snap on lid. I carry the bin in the bed of my truck.

Whatever you do, don't carry it in your square tube bumper. It will rust out the thin sheet metal these bumpers are constructed from.

Our square bumper is made of aluminum.

I have two of the 5" vinyl fence posts mounted underneath to the frame.
One has metal straps the other has zip ties.
