My toilet was a "rockin" so after removing to reseat, discovered a bit of a mess. There was a newer universal flange that I removed. Then cleaned up any residue, and found an old iron flange underneath that looks broken. I was not able to pry it up, and there are not any screws holding it down. I am wondering if it is attached to the lead pipe, as one piece or soldered.
I thought about just putting a new flange over it as I had found, but the available screw holes in the old flange are useless as the holes into the subfloor are stripped or rotted, and won't hold a screw any longer.
So, I am thinking about trying to remove the old flange, before mounting a new one.
