Again, thanks to all! This A/S journey proves more interesting by the day. I found the city water fill inlet! Yes it is "in" the outside compartment that houses the shore electrical cord. Who puts water and electric next to each other? I don't know but it's ok w me...I found it! I'm sure there's a hand valve inside that diverts this fill up water away from the tanks but I'll find that next. Anyone have any response to my parts search in another post under "toilets" about the SaniWave? Sure could use some help on that one too

Thanks millions!

Picture of Inlet "60" Overlander

This thread has been most enlightening to me, seeing as how we just purchased a "60" Overlander. I racked my brain trying to figure out where to hook the city water....certainly not on the inlet cap. But it seems that is exactly where to engage city water. Now to find a hose with two male ends. Can the plastic face on the dial be replaced to see what the pressure is. What is the ideal pressure? So, if it ain't broken...

Bob,

I purchased a water hose adapter (for male-to-male, the adapter is a two-female bass fitting). The water hose is a male end (trailer side) and so is the water faucet on the '61 Overlander. My Overlander does not have a pressure dial, so I purchased a hose pressure regulator to go on the city faucet/hose.
