    Good morning Speedball1 happy Wednesday, I have one more question regarding the tool(s) needed to loosen the drain assembly. As you can see from the picture I've got a cramped space to work in. What tool would you recommend that I use to accomplish the task? Your assistance will be appreciated.

    The first thing I would do is load the threads up with WD-40. Then I would take a dull chisel, (you don'[t want to cut into the brass nut with a sharp one) and tap away and try to start the thread to loosen. The make drain wrenches, (see images) to fit the large nut but if you can start the nut turning counterclockwise perhaps you can "tap" it off so the drain can be lifted enough to replace the drain seal. Good luck, Tom
