I have this old toilet in my basement that I would like to reuse, it's a 14" rough in, and I love it. But it was held onto the wall with adhesive. We pulled it off to replace the floor and now it looks like the pipe that connects the tank to the toilet is maybe in need of replacement. Can one buy a new pipe?

For some reason it isn't letting me post more photos.

That's an old Kohler Sibley. Sibley was the model of the bowl. They flush fantastic! You can buy the elbow and spuds on PlumbingSupply.com

good luck with that project......

Installing those old toilets is a lost art,
I suggest you measure 3 times at least and then cut to size
maybe mark the wall where you are going to mount the tank first
and then set everything in place just to be sure..........
Maybe you should buy a couple of those goose necks just in case you mess
the first one up...


I have had my share of struggles with them
