Anyone have Trillium 4500 deluxe front bath/sink photos?

[AlexTN]

I am trying to figure out how to put back the front washroom on my 78 4500 front bath model. I think I know how it all attaches, but I wanted to see photos first.



To be honest the layout doesn't do much for me and I'm already thinking about converting to a front dinette or front shower...


Anyone have any photos they can share how to attach the hinges and cushions I have?

Yah, the front bathroom design seems, awkward. No shower, the trailer has a sink that is within reach of the one in the bathroom.

I would love a review of the front bench / desk thing.

Hope this works, it's my first try at pictures.

Lynn, You're a picture posting pro!

I think that AlexTN would love to see pictures of how everything is put together. Pictures of all the screws and fasteners would be good. This is not the first time that this question has come up.

Where in Alberta do you live? If you are near Calgary, I would love to take a lot of pictures of your trailer. There are not many front bathroom 4500's out there.

Is that a porta potty or a composting toilet?

To answer a couple of questions, the toilet is basically a bucket with a seal and vent on it. It is no longer in the trailer because it broke when I hit bottom on a steep approach. I am putting shelves in that area and will carry a porta potti if I keep the trailer. The pictures are from just before I discovered the leak. Fortunately it was only water as I was testing it before trying to sell the trailer.

All the mounting screws are still there. I am in Calgary. The trailer is in storage on the very north end of Calgary.

Hi Lynn, thank you for the photos, they help.

Based on how your cushions are positioned, it almost looks like the front sink countertop is slightly different than mine. I have a long skinny section above the back cushion that runs underneath the front window, and a molded section where it looks like the cushion tucks into when its not folded out.

The rest of the cushion assembly looks about how I expected, with the wood leg that swings out, attached with a piano hinge. There were some extra pieces that look like they could support that wood leg as a tabletop with a swing out coat hanger type thing. Not sure if yours has them as well?

Still not sure if I want to tackle a conversion. You can see what I've done to mine in my build thread if you're interested.

I have a 1980 4500 with original front bath with toilet, bi-fold door, fold down love seat, and lavatory. It will be next week before I can take some photos to post. The toilet holds about 6 gallons and uses a regular RV dump valve to empty it. The toilet has a hand pump on it to pump water to flush it with water from the fresh water tank under the rear floor under the dinette. We have a 12volt RV water pump that also supplies water to flush the toilet. If the toilet ever broke I would just remove it a build a base to put a large porta potty in it's place. You can then just dump the porta potty in any vault or flush toilet for free as apposed to paying to dump.
