hello, I'm new to the pop up world....sorta... we had an old one when I was a wee man. basically jus a tent off the ground lol.. but I finally jus purchased my own...a 93 jayco eagle 10 series.. previous owner had put a new canvas on it. that's what sold me on it? I heard that's basically the most crucial when buying used? have a few questions ,,,and aspirations for it..i'll try an figure out how to load pics??? basically it has a sink?? but the pumps jus kinda sittin...... on another bench lol? the guy said it worked jus old? im not too concerned with having a sink as much as I'd like to add a small shower type thingy? I figure if the sink drained shouldn't a small shower??? I have no idea what the sink even drains into??....(I'm very very new) lol ive seen lil toilet/shower combos? I figured an old janitor type mop sink would maybe work for a tub?? and was lookin at the triton 5L portable shower thingy?? please don't be too harsh on an uneducated man!!! lol any info or direction towards literature is greatly appreciated... i'll be trying to do some more forum searches..

Hello and welcome. Some pic's as you start to modify the unit are always good.

welcome aboard!

As for the sink drain, most likely there is a hose connection outside on the side of the PU, right below the sink. Add a 2-3 foot section of old hose and drain it into a 5 gallon bucket. When it is getting full, carry off to the woods, latrine and dump it.

Personally for a shower setup, I would do it outside, add a modern RV outside shower connection near the pump/water heater. Then make or buy an outdoor shower setup. Google "Outdoor Shower Tent" and there are lots of examples.

There are also outdoor tankless water heaters available too. I have seen them for as low $100, in both propane and electric models. I have been thinking about getting an electric model.
