Judy & Joe,
Is this just a regular pipe elbow with threads on the inside?

Something that may be helpful. While traveling in OR my air alarm went off and the coach started riding really rough. Fortunately for us there was a Rest Area about 100 yards from where this happened. As I pulled in to the Truck parking the emergency brake locked. Really Lucky!!!
Got out and I could hear air leaking from the rear of the MH. Jacked it up (20 Tom hydraulic jack) in found that the purge valve in the air dryer assembly was gone. A friend that had this happen told me to carry a 1/2" pipe elbow with me, luckily I took his advise. Removed the input and output air hoses from the dryer and connected them to the 1/2" pipe elbow and "viola", problem solved. Drove the coach to Tucson and replaced the purge valve and rebuilt the dryer. It's cheap insurance to carry a 1/2" pipe elbow!!
