Revolution Sewer Hose fit in bumper?

[jakes29]

Anyone running the Revolution sewer hose kit? Mine won't fit in my bumper for storage and was wondering if anyone has modified it to make it fit. I believe it's a standard 4" hollow bumper and the fittings on the hose are larger. Although, I haven't had much time to mess with since the TT is back to the dealership after our initial shake down trip. It's a 2018 Kodiak 285bhsl. TIA!

The water rusts the inside of the bumper out and then you have sandpaper rubbing on the hose every time you put it in and take it out.

+1 bumper is fine for the original hose gifted by the selling dealer but when I bought a nice hose I went with the 5" vinyl fence post holder. Always smooth and clean.

I learned this the hard way with our first TT.
Like many others, I turned a vinyl fence post into a stinky slinky holder.

Isn't the revolution the same basic hose as the Rhino with 4 locking nipples that connect it ? Don't those connectors fit the corners of the square tube carrier if you line them up ?
In the standard 4" square sewer carrier , it only fits one way AFAIK .

They probably do, I haven't had the trailer back yet to mess with it too much. Thought I'd see what others have done. Thanks for your input.

I had to file off a couple of the pins from my Rino. All I needed was the hooks. I do not know why the other bumps were on there. It is a very tight fit in my bumper.

I have the Revolution hose and it fits in my Jayco bumper. The ears have to be diagonally but it barely fits.

I haven't had much time to mess with it. Upon our first dump station trip, I tried sticking in the bumper and it didn't go right in. May fit if I turn it the right way like you say. Thank you for the info.

I'm using the Rhinoflex which has very similar fittings, I use this carrier to hold the hose. Still have to take the sewer flange adapter off but IMHO it's much better than storing it in the bumper.
