You don't need to replace the entire valve. You rebuild the existing valve by removing the 4 bolts then replace with a new gate & seals. Before reinstalling head to your local hardware store & pick up a tube of "plumbers grease" (also works great on the toilet seals) to use on the new seals, NOT Vaseline or any other petroleum product as it could damage the seals. It can be PITA to separate the 2 halves if there's not any slack in the line.
BTW! I don't nor never have owned a DRV but have owned & worked on several rvs that 99.9% are built with the same stuff as DRV just not packaged in the expensive wrapping. Didn't want to get scolded for responding to a DRV question.
