Hello everyone,
I'm trying to remove what I think is called the drain body in the sink because the tailpiece's threads sheared off like butter into the drain body's female threads and I can't remove it without getting the whole drainbody out to work on it and see if it bears replacing. It's a pivot/popup style body. Is there a trick to keeping the flange stationary while unscrewing the drain body? Luckily I have a helper to work on the flange but I'm not sure which tools are best to avoid any damage.
