Hello, thanks for all the help you have given me as I lurked about in the past. Now I must post, and hope for the best. I have a new construction master bath, in a cellar. original rough was for a double sink vanity. now I am changing to a beautiful reclaimed buffet turned vanity/vessel sink. i opened the whole wall. I dont want the drains so low to the ground now that i have this awesome vanity. (hiding them in the buffet) the new height would be about 24 inches off the floor. Using the left drain run, can I simply 90 down the inside of the wall, and 90 over to the drain stack? (long 90) and cap/ plug the one on the right?
its a single stack dedicated for that sink/trap.
can i plug both, cut in a new tee at 24" off the floor?
Removing that double sanitary, scabbing in a pipe and 2 couplings, and then cutting in a left opening tee at 24" would absolutely suck in that wall. but if I have to, i will.

Cut out the santee and install a new santee at the right height.
You can't 90 up without ruining the effect of the venting.

Thanks Terry, guess what i did, i wanted to use slip or union at bottom, got everything fitted up, got ready for the last piece, the union, i pulled on the vent stack a little to sneak the union by, snapped a santee 6 feet up the wall, now that 3x 3 hole has a vertical strip heading up to the ceiling!!!
