Replacing an old Delta tub spout

[NeverGiveUp]

I have had hard time to replace my old Delta tub spout. The current copper stub out nipple is 2 3/4" long from the wall. I bought a Danco universal tub spout, but couldn't install it yet. It seems that I will have to remove a mental adaptor from the current copper nipple to use the new one, but can't turn it around at all. Can I get any tip on how to remove it or to choose any alternative replacement option with bronze color?

For that fitting I would pick up another Delta spout.
To remove that you will need to heat it with a torch, which is doable. That has been soldered on.

You will need to replace it with a Delta diverter spout. It will screw onto the existing adapter. See the Delta link.

Does this one appeal to you? https://www.deltafaucet.com/bathroom/product/RP77091RB

Or do you want one with no diverter which offers two different version of "bronze"? https://www.homedepot.com/p/Delta-T...Spout-in-Champagne-Bronze-RP77350CZ/308737707

Suffix RB would be on the spouts of the darker bronze you may want.

Sorry for putting one that won't work in my suggestions. I edited my previous post.
You want one that says "RP12307 adapter assembly included" in the description. This one has that: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Delta-O...-Spout-in-Venetian-Bronze-RP43161RB/203621634
