Title: offset waste tank drain problem

The waste tank drain opening in my 04 Inspire does not line up well with the opening that the waste hose passes through to the outside of the plumbing compartment. Consequently, the hose gets damaged by being pressed into the edge of the opening. I've had to replace two hoses so far in a short time. The 45 degree elbows that are available do not work. I'm looking for a 15 or 30 degree elbow. Has anyone located such a part or solved the problem in another way? Thanks for any help with this issue.

Camping World and others sell a sort've hard plastic slinky hose that should work well for you. As an alternative, have an auto body shop "move the hole" for you.

Tony, I'm not familiar with the Inspire model.

 On my Intrigue the "T" junction that joins black and gray tanks can rotate on the east west axis so any re alignment in that direction is easy. Is your problem east west or north south (front to back)?
