[C320-list] head faucet replacement

[Allan S Field]

Dave - First remove the 3 drawers.  Second, find the 5 screws that affix the entire cabinet assembly to the bulkhead and back them off.  Third, raise the steps to the up position.  Fourth, pull the cabinet assembly away from the bulkhead.  You will now have all the room you need to change out the faucet.

Subject: [C320-list] head faucet replacement


It's time to replace the head/shower faucet in our 1995 C320. Access is not easy. Has anyone done a recent replacement and can offer suggestions on 1) where to buy the entire faucet assembly (any options other than Catalina Direct?); 2) getting the old corroded faucet out. Can the woodwork surrounding the access door in the aft cabin be removed to improve access? Any help would be appreciated.
