I was wondering if some of you guys could shed some light on what I am trying to do. I am remodeling a bathroom at my house which was built in the 1960s. I have everything down the studs, and the house is on a slab foundation. The old tub which I believe was considered a 32-in tub at the time had the drain at 14 1/4 inches off the back wall. The current 32-in tubs are pretty much centered at 16-in off the wall. The drain pipe and trap are the standard 1960s configuration: everything metal "glued" together with lead. The top of the trap is about 11-in below the floor.
For those of you who have dealt with a similar situation, what did you guys end up doing? Did you go as far as removing the trap or did you leave the trap alone and managed to put together a combination of fittings to offset the drain pipe coming out of the trap?
