    The 4 inch is for the toilet. The 2" in the wall line is for a lavatory, (you do know the lavatory has to be vented don't you?) and if the other 2 inch's coming up out of the cement you're roughed for a shower, if it's in the middle of a square hole in the cement you're roughed in for a bathtub. More questions? I'm as close as a click. Tom
