Re: [A/S] Re: 1966 shower valve



JC,
 I don't remember the brand, nor whether it was 4" center distance or
not.

What I eventually found was something with the same center distance, but
only 'similar' in other regards. I had to tap the water connections to
take fittings that would adapt to what I had, also had to fit some sort
of adaptor to the outlet to be able to attach the hose. That also
probably involved tapping threads into it. I do remember that I didn't
have to mess with the fittings in the trailer plumbing, but it required
a couple of hours of messing around in other aspects to make it fit. It
all worked out well in the end, but I do have a complete machine shop at
my disposal. :-)

What is "easy" or "only a bit of bother" for me could admittedly be a
real problem for others not as well equipped.
