Front tank is usually the fresh water tank and on many hi-los it is a thrity gallon tank, but it is plastic. The rear tanks ARE , usually, the black and grey water tanks. BAck in the day trailers used to combine the grey and black water. That is not standard, now. But, it MAY have been back in 1978. Check out the library on this site and try to find a brochure from a year close to yours- preferably 78 or older. that may give you a good indication.
