Not sure how your Journey is setup (which model do you have?), but my 2005 Vectra uses a 1 1/2" cable-operated blade valve for the fresh water dump. See the links below:

Valterra T1001PBC 1-1/2" Valve Body

Valterra T1001-9VP Bladex 1-1/2" Valve Seal with Hardware, (Set of 2)

I'm a little confused. Are you referring to the valve of your gray tank that holds the dirty water from your sinks and shower, or the valve to empty your fresh water holding tank? If it's the gray tank, refer to the post above. If it is the fresh water tank, you might be able to find the valve at a hardware store. May have to contact an RV dealer or winnebago.

Good luck!

Actually, the info in my post above IS regarding the 1 1/2" fresh water dump valve. The black and gray dump valves are similar, but larger diameter, and not cable operated on most Winnebagos.

Fresh water drain valve

I had the fresh water drain valve on my 2015 Vista replaced by Camping World with one with a metal handle.
