77 Road Ranger - How to drop the holding tank?

Hello Everyone!

I am brand new to the RV world and just bought a 77 Road Ranger. It's in great shape minus the broken (and a truly mean broken) holding tank which is dangling in half from the underbelly of the trailer. I have searched and searched for owners manuals for this trailer but I am guessing trailer manuals are not as easy to come by as auto repair manuals.

Can anyone guide me through the removal of this thing? I'd like to do it while it's still frozen out here in Utah!!!

Many thanks,
Chris

  • Have you looked under the trailer at the tank. You should see brackets, cross member, or some other way the tank was secured. There is a vent pipe and fill pipe from sink/shower on the inside. Locate these pipes and cut off to allow tank to come out.
