I thought I would do a short thread on this little project.
First some of you are probably wondering why?
From the kitchen sink the piping came down through the floor and across the gray tank causing a bulge in it and preventing proper drainage. The line was being pinched between the gray tank and frame. This is also directly against the coroplast.
The line then ran forward to the low point drains that again are directly against the coroplast. Note the go under the sewer pipe and the drain is not the low point.
I cut the pipe below the sink and the low point drains and pulled the old pipe out.
The fun this morning was uncoiling the pex. I let it sit in the sun before taping together ans threading it through the cross members. It now totally clears the fresh water tank and gray tank and is now in the heated area away from the coroplast.,
New lines now run beside the water tank and not over the corner and above the sewer pipes - not below as was before.
One note - even though I winterized and blew the lines out with compressed air there was at least a cup of antifreeze in each line when I cut them
Tomorrow I need to pull my distribution panel as the pex commendations and floor penetration are right behind it. I need to make new low point connections new connections under the sink and I will be done. I needed to get this done before mounting the tires as the tires would have limited my access.

I am sanitizing the system too at the same time..
