But Jabsco has always chosen to "march to their own drum" and their toilet discharge fittings have always been 1"...requiring Jabsco toilet owners to use adapters to connect their toilets to holding tanks.

Hate to disagree with you but here's a picture of my old Jabsco in place before I replaced it with a Raritan PH ll Superflush.



The three white hoses shown are 3/4" dia. and the black discharge hose is 1-1/2" dia. It was removed from the toilet outlet fitting to the tank in one solid length. No adapters used from the factory. The corresponding fitting on the tank was 1-1/2" dia. The old permeated black hose was replaced with 1-1/2" Trident Premium #102 hose in one solid length.

Don't have any old Jabsco parts left lying around as I wanted no bad memories remaining, but the toilet bowl discharge had to be 1-1/2" dia.

The 1-1/2" outlet is also implied in the Jabsco installation manual :

I've just fitted this stuff to my old Westerly Longbow as I rather suspected the old hose was getting choked up or blocked and hadn't been replaced for many years.
Flying Goose, post 18, gives a valuable tip about heating the hose before pushing it onto fittings. I did the same but using a pint mug of near boiling water to do the job.
Anyway, main reason for posting is to say that what I thought would be a one hour job took nearer ten hours. Main problem was the time I had to spend cleaning out the Henderson pump of accumulated limescale or whatever it is. Crikey, it took some shifting. Then cleaned the valves on the pump before reassembling it and finding I had the alignment of the handle wrong. Stripped again and reassembled only to find I had trapped a bit of the main diaphragm in the join and the pump was leaking. Stripped and reassembled, this time the screw fittings holding the exit valve in place were leaking. Stripped, sorted and reassembled... next time it'll be a new pump and hang the cost!
Oh, and allow for needing some new jubilee clips. Some of my old ones were corroded and had to be cut off, another bit of awkward hacksaw work.
wishing you success - at least, more than I had!
