Hi there, I'm new to RVing, just bought a 2005 Keystone Outback rss25. The previous owner told me a toilet fitting is cracked and I need to get a replacement part. Anyone had this issue? Advice about fixing it? Where to buy parts? Thank you!

Toilet fitting? Which one, the mount flange/foam seal around the base? The water inlet? The vacuum breaker? The foot pedal?

What part are you looking to replace?

Your Dometic 310/320 and quite a few others will take this plate from Recpro.com. Price is $9.95 includig shipping. I just bought one. It was here in 4 days. Part number RV Toilet Mounting Bracket Closet Flange (Wax Ring: No, do not include a wax seal) RP-1240
Now you know.

I might also add, you can remove the commode, stuff a handfull of tp in the 3" hole leading to the black tank, remove the four screws holding this to the floor and rotate it about 90 degrees and use the two other slots to hold your commode until the new bracket gets there. Easy-peezy!

Mine is a screw on flange to the black tank and has 4 screws to hold it to the floor and 2 T-bolts to secure the toilet. I got mine from Recpro. The threaded part of mine was cracked from the factory and for two years leaked into the sandwich laminated flooring system unnoticed until I replaced the toilet for a separate unrelated issue. Right now you can open my bathroom door and see the ground (I gutted the bathroom floor and I am now rebuilding it). A simple $10 part can cost a lot more in parts and labor and headache

I have a 2002 and my flange is the one Jim showed a picture and link. I would also buy new flange bolts as a 2005 commode likely has rusty bolts. Not sure what the OP was describing for sure so hopefully the OP will come back and show a picture of the cracked part or more complete description. I imagine a 2005 had an Thetford Aqua Magic and I would throw that out anyway and set a Dometic 3xx series in its place.
