Updated - Toilet help

[Ishler]

My memory(often faulty)says that recently someone posted pictures of the procedure to change the ball valve seal in a Thetford toilet. I've tried several searches of the forum to no avail. Can anyone confirm I'm crazy(not hard) and/or point me to the post?

Thanks

Update - Replaced the seals today only took about 20 mins and all seems well, the only thing is I have 4 nylon washers left. There is no way to apply them, I assume they are for a different model than I have.

Was it Stiles?
I changed mine, a Dometic.

Racerjoe, it's not any of those, too old this was recently(I think)
Ozz this was for the Thetford ball seal.
I found the instructions and talked to John Kohl so I think it's straight forward.

You can order the seal online...it comes with pretty specific instructions and is not very difficult to do. It does not, however, come with the silicon grease required by the manufacturer. That can be found at many auto parts stores (I think).

Found another thread in another forum with good pictures. Looks straight forward as I thought, I was just looking to avoid surprises. Silicone grease I have lots of.
