Repositioning the Grey Water Hose

I occasionally use the grey water hose, but found that its factory-mounted location (to the right of the bumper hitch) impeded the installation of Mercedes' original exhaust system. I'm considering moving the exhaust to this spot, so I decided to move the grey water hose to the other side of the van.

The key insight is that the hangers for the hose are completely reversible, so it's easy to swap it to the left side.  

Hanger 2 is the one that has to be flipped around. This picture shows it in its original position, attached to one of the frame rails on the passenger side. There is an identical rail on the driver's side, so just flip the hanger and attach it to that rail.

The hangers are attached with self-drilling screws, so it takes some pretty good arm power to drive them into the rails, but it's doable.
