    I'd switch to a 2 inch gatevalve for the out flow. It also looks like you have metal nuts and bolts on the flange, I would switch those to plastic ones from home depot before the corrode.

    i tried to find plastic bolts and nuts at lowes but no luck
    those are stainless steel bolts nuts and washers, so maybe they will be ok since they are on the outside.

    for the drain, im gonna stick with this set up for a while, but im sure i will change it out in the future.

    The plastic nuts and bolts at HD or Lowes are like 3-4 x what you can get them for online. If you want to switch them out they are in the "drawers" at each store. There is a whole section of them.
