    How to make J tube fit from drain to wall pipe
    Putting in a new sink in bathroom and the J tube isn't quite long enough. Also, the wall pipe fits the J tube, but the drain is too small of a diameter. Are there some adaptive parts that can be used, and if I need a different size /length J tube, how would I measure for it? Yes, I am a girl, but I'm really trying to learn... :confused:

    OK Micki,

    We can help but we need more information. What material are the pipes and trap in question? What's the size of each? There's a Nylon reducing gasket that fits in a 1 1/2" or 2" trap that will reduce down to 1 1/4" to pick up your lavatory tailpiece. But I really need more details. Cheers, Tom
