My Travel Trailer bumper (or sewer hose holder if you prefer) has a cap on the end that keeps falling off and getting lost. (So what else is new right.) My old style cap has no tabs on the sides o...

The factory bumper ends that came on our KZ kept backing out. Never fell out, but was weird how they would back 1/2 way out even on short trips. Must have been something to do with the sheet metal of the bumper flexing due to the spare tire bouncing up & down.
Bought some Camco ones and they stay put. Very cheap fix. RV designer makes a bumper end with a flip-open hatch - screw, glue or tape (double-sided) the frame in place.
We're another one that never puts the sewer hose in the bumper. Too slow and PITA because the hose ends barely fit in. I just connect the ends together and put them in the pass-through or back of the truck. They're mostly in the truck. We have 4 lengths of sewer hose and normally use only 2 sections and have an out-of-the-way storage spot inside for them under a wall cabinet. I am thinking of getting a Super-Slider hose carrier made by D&W - 3 expandable models from 33-100" and will fit between the frame's I-beams (can't do that with Valterra's). Decent price too.
