Bullet 308BHS Missing Gray Tank Pull

Hi there,
Just picked up a 2015 used TT and it is missing one of the handles at the dump station. I believe the one missing is actually the control handle for the gray tank, but not sure. Dealer said they think the one valve controls black and gray, but I'm not buying it. Anyone have similar model model that can verify the existence and placement of second handle, maybe a pic?

Thanks,
Daniel

Confirmed. Two handles, one on either side of the dump outlet. Left is gray, right is black.

Your welcome. Let me know if you have any questions with your 308. I've been over every inch of mine about 10 times. The wife thinks I'm crazy. Its a good coach with a functional floor plan when you have little ones. Not too heavy on the hitch or axles either.

One item of concern with your "new to you" coach are the tires. If they are original OEM rubber (Trailer Kings), you may want to invest in a new set from a more reputable manufacturer (ie Carlisle, Maxxis or Goodyear). With the OEMs, there is very little, if any, load reserve capacity with the 205/75/14 LRCs. Assuming your tires are more than 24 months old, the GVWR of the trailer cannot be supported by the China bombs and a catastrophic event is just waiting to happen at highway speeds. Most members on here will attest to this sentiment.

I'm running 225/75/15 LRE Carlisle tires now (with new wheels) Gained more than 50% reserve capacity. Invested in a TPMS system for the trailer tires too. One less worry now. Again, Welcome!

Tires and mods

BB, thank you for the heads up on the tires, they most definitely are the TK's and I will be looking for other options, where did you end up getting you new wheel/tires?

I would be interested in you have any guidance for adding an outdoor led light strip. I have been looking at the Boogey lights and they wire directly into the 12v power, with option for 110 plug. I imagine this mod would require me to drill into the rig at some point and that scares me some at this point.
