Yes, I replaced one on 2011, I think nothing changed. There were only three support bars under the tank so I added more. If you travel with water most likely it spills out of the vent hoses and you have little left at the end of the day. This would be a good time to correct the problems. I added a fill port to the top of the tank that aligned with the furnace compartment. From there I ran a large diameter gravity fill hose over the wheel housing and out the side using a gravity fill port. A vent hose ran there as well. Whatever you do, the vent hoses out the bottom must be eliminated and a new hose needs to come out the side well above water level. In order to use all of the water in the tank the supply hose needs to be moved from the tank side and attached to the drain line. I had tons of photos on Photobucket till they became a garbage company, if you want to do a lot of work to make things right, I can post numerous photos as needed.

Thank you for the info I ended up selling the camper I did fix the water tank and put it back with better bracing and the vent hoses already have valves to close or open them |
