That was $20 for a package of 10. 

¼” x 2” zinc plated (which was what was OEM on my 25) are $1.24 for a package 
of 2 at Lowes. 

5/16” x 2” stainless at $17 for a pack of 15  at Lowes - almost enough for 4 
boats.

Bruce, thanks for that tidbit of info. I am up grading to a LF39 that 2 jabsco 
heads. My 38LF has the Raritan head. Was not looking forward to the $800 
upgrade cost for both heads.

Just FYI for your consideration, Raritan makes a pump kit that can be used with 
the existing bowl, and it is way cheaper than a new Raritan head.  On our old 
C 27, I replaced our Jabsco with a Raritan, and really felt that their pump 
and lever design was better than the up-and-down pump of the Jabsco.  Now that 
we've upgraded boats, our '94 C 37/40+ has a Jabsco, and when it comes time 
for an overhaul, I think I'll convert it to a Raritan with the pump kit.

Hey everyone,I'm going to be replacing the toilet on our 34 in the next week or 
so. Last time I was down there I was looking at how it's mounted and noticed 
that it's up on a little platform and looks like there are thru-bolts holding 
it in place. I'm assuming that there is then a bolt on the underside that I 
will need to try and hold in place to loosen and tighten. I can't seem to 
figure out how to get under there though? I've thought that maybe the wall 
panel towards the v-berth comes off, but haven't tried it yet. Typically when I 
do something like that, something breaks and I'd prefer not to break something 
if I don't have to. :-)
Any ideas on how to get to the underside of that platform for mounting a new 
toilet to it?
Also, if I need to drill new holes for the new toilet, should I fill the old 
holes? If so, with what?

Re: Stus-List Toilet Replacement Mounting question

[Edward Levert via CnC-List]

Kevin:

Before purchasing the new head, I measured and measured the available
space. I made the purchase of the larger bowl when I was satisfied it would
fit. Out of the box, the head had it pump on the right side facing the
head, same as the head I was removing. I got the new one screwed to the
base and plumbed. Only then when I put the toilet seat on did I find out
that the angled side wall prevented the seat from raising. After worrying
what to do with the new head, I had the idea to switch the pump to the
other side, an easy chore. Luckily it all fit. The moral is to see how it
fits, seat included, before you start drilling.

Re: Stus-List Toilet Replacement Mounting question

[Eugene Fodor via CnC-List]

Hi Kevin,

Dittos on the lag screws. Also, be sure to do a dry fit including making
sure that you can get all the hoses attached. I believe I used 5200 (or
4200) on the holes and also on the lag screws. My head had a wood backer
underneath the fiberglass platform.

It’s all coming back to me.  Space was an issue on the 34, and I also switched 
the side of the pump.  I forget the toilet type, but it barely fit even as 
reconfigured.

that hold the toilet down.  The "studs" are called hanger bolts, they have a

other, with the wood screw end going into the platform.  I filled the 
old holes with epoxy, and drilled and screwed in the new hanger bolts.

Hey everyone,
I'm going to be replacing the toilet on our 34 in the next week or so. 
Last time I was down there I was looking at how it's mounted and 
noticed that it's up on a little platform and looks like there are 
thru-bolts holding it in place. I'm assuming that there is then a bolt 
on the underside that I will need to try and hold in place to loosen 
and tighten. I can't seem to figure out how to get under there though? 
I've thought that maybe the wall panel towards the v-berth comes off, 
but haven't tried it yet. Typically when I do something like that, 
something breaks and I'd prefer not to break something if I don't have 
to. :-)


Any ideas on how to get to the underside of that platform for mounting 
a new toilet to it?


Also, if I need to drill new holes for the new toilet, should I fill 
the old holes? If so, with what?


Thanks,

Stus-List Toilet Replacement Mounting question

[Kevin Paxton via CnC-List]

Hey everyone,
I'm going to be replacing the toilet on our 34 in the next week or so. Last
time I was down there I was looking at how it's mounted and noticed that
it's up on a little platform and looks like there are thru-bolts holding it
in place. I'm assuming that there is then a bolt on the underside that I
will need to try and hold in place to loosen and tighten. I can't seem to
figure out how to get under there though? I've thought that maybe the wall
panel towards the v-berth comes off, but haven't tried it yet. Typically
when I do something like that, something breaks and I'd prefer not to break
something if I don't have to. :-)

Any ideas on how to get to the underside of that platform for mounting a
new toilet to it?

Also, if I need to drill new holes for the new toilet, should I fill the
old holes? If so, with what?
