Can anyone help me with the part number or size of the pin that holds the handle on the black tank dump valve? Ours broke the last time out and I would like to get it fixed before we go out again this month.

Hi Jon,
Over the years, there have been a number of different pull cables and handles used. Also, a couple of different suppliers.
If you can post a picture of the problem, or at least the details of your rig, we might be able to help you.
If the hole where the pin was, is worn enough for the pin to fall out, you might be better off with a small bolt and nut.
I have had 2 out of 3 break. If you have the barrel pin type take the handle to the hardware store and get a machine screw and nylon threaded locking nut. I bought slightly larger and drilled out the handle and rod. Buty extras for as many pull handles as your trailer has.

I just replaced mine yesterday and here is what I used:
All Thread from Home Depot #8 x32
Drawer Pull knob - Model # P67659C-SN-C
I cut approximately 1 inch of the all thread, used thread locker and attached the Drawer pull knob first, and applied thread locker to other end and threaded into the pull cable.
I plan to replace the two in the front compartment with the same knob, primarily due to the space savings, and the fact everything tends to get caught on those T handles.
