My kitchen sink faucet in MH leaks at the base, all the stuff that shows how to fix talk about removing a nut under the handle (my faucet doesn't have). This is a 1997 MH Shasta - probably original faucet. Can't get the stem out - don't want to break.

Yup the only difference between a Kitchen Sink in a house and in an RV is the one in the rv is often not as high quality.

Connections, hole spacing and such. all standard.
ONLY difference I have found is the Delta-look-alike (knockoff) in my Motor home the hot and cold pigtails (Single handle's have pigtails) were same length and on teh Price Fister they were not so I had to do a bit of plumbing.

On a 2 handle they should both be the same. .
Home was where I park it. but alas the.

Replace the RV faucet with any nice quality brand replacement you can find at Home Depot or Lowes. You will thank yourself after doing so.

Faucet mounting holes tend to be universal but you can remove your old one and measure before buying.

You can replace with another two handle or a more modern single handle and even add a sprayer!

Depending on the water terminations you may need to adapt things, sharkbite fittings work well with PEX lines in your RV. I also would recommend using flexible braided water line hoses if you do need to modify the water lines which makes it easy to work on in the future.
