Toilet replacement

I need to replace the toilet in a 69 Tradewind. The existing toilet is an Aqua Magic Supreme (haven't found this one online anywhere), and I'm looking for a compatible replacement that is low profile and will fit under the toilet cover/bench that closes over the toilet while not in use. Anyone know what toilet will fit in this space?? Thank you

Toilet replacement

I installed a low profile Aqua Magic V without any problems. I never did replace the cover for the so called "secret compartment". Mine is the hand flush model.

We replaced this same toilet on a 77 argosy. The only replacement I could find that would fit was the sealand traveler 511. Just barely fits. it's a much nicer toilet as well. If you do some searching on the forum for sealand traveler toilet you should hit more discussions about this.

With your replacement of the toilet did you all so replace the flange for the holes to line up for the Aqua Magic V .?
As I think the holes are in a different location for that toilet.
Thanks

Hi all I have a 1975 Argosy that I had to put pex pipe in to replace the copper pipe , all most complete but still have a leak at the rear now here is the issue .
I am replacing the toilet because of a bad ball valve so to check my black tank for leaks I put the line in the tank turned on the Garden H. and filled it with water , went out side to look under Argosy no leak all is good, released valve and removed the water.

So went back and hooked Garden H. up to system filled argosy and steady leak in the location of the sink area could be seen under the rear of the Argosy , no water in side of trailer???????

Let me explain as I was replacing the copper pipe ,I had to remove the plywood by the tub and noticed the is one copper pipe and a plastic pipe with 3 clamps on it was that the way it was made or a repair in the past?
Also if you follow the copper and plastic pipe it takes a right turn right below toilet and in front of the sink I guess . question should I remove the plastic in front of the toilet and sink and see if the plastic pipe or copper is leaking ????????? not coming in trailer . or could it be the regulator ????? not sure were to go from here need help asap.
Thanks All

Could be the pressure relief valve discharge line or a drain.
On my '74 Argosy 26' there were 2 lines that ran in front of the toilet, then made a left turn in front of the tub. These line fed the water to the galley sink.
What kind of pressure do you have with City water?

NOT sure of the pressure on city water ; every thing else works fine.
Can see the regulator but it is not leaking?
Do you think I should check lines running in front of sink? Have to remove plastic.
or go under rear of the argosy and try to remove the covering to see if I can find the leak.
so close to getting done do not know what or were to go from here ; need help. asap
Thanks Alla
