Kitchen Slideout with leaking fresh water supply

[Nikcoh]

Hi, I'm hoping for some help here. Below is a picture. It's nearly impossible it reuse the six brass swivel couplers because of the plumbers cement used to seal the PVC connectors. I have heard that Newmar uses a newer simpler design, but the customer service gal was flat out unhelpful to try and get me an answer as to what it is. I replaced some of the PVC but all the 90 degree elbows are leaking. I figure I need to find swivel coupler replacements or figure out an alternative. Any body have any ideas?

Thank you,
Carlton

Once I was searching for some similar swivel joints for work, and I found that they are sometimes called "car wash swivel" fittings. Good luck with it.

SharkBite connectors maybe:

You might want to try using hoses instead of swivels. My 2019 CS uses heated hoses run on the underside of the slide in the track with all the wiring.

I don't think I'd use SharkBites for swivels. They are designed for stationary use and the constant twisting would likely cause issues with the O ring seal.

Take one or both off and go to a big box hardware store. I'm sure that's pretty common. And like dutchstar411 suggested above but with a 90 on each end.
