Possible to install larger fresh water tank?
My 5er has an advertised fresh water capacity of 54 gallons. In doing a water test this past summer, in reality it only holds ~ 36 gallons. I called Forest River and they claimed it's actually a 40 ...

I am ready to do the exact same thing, but on a much smaller trailer. I have a Hideout 177LHS and it only came with a 20 gallon fresh water tank. I sourced a 52 gallon tank to replace it. My grey and black are 30 each, so I am putting in an extra pump that will use grey water to flush the toilet. The combination of these 2 mods should give us quite a bit more usable fresh water.
I bought a Ronco tank from plasticwatertanks.com
Both of their sites have lots of info and many different sized tanks. You can even tell them where to put the fittings. In my case I had them place them the same as the stock tank, so I should be able to just swap it in place of the other without messing with the plumbing there. It took about 2 weeks to get from time of order.
