    Repairing tub trip drain
    I need to replace the rod and bucket for my brass trip drain on the tub. The problem is that the normal replacement "bucket" is too large. My old one measures about 1.25 inches. Generic replacement is about 1 5/16 inches. Where is this available? I hate to replace the entire drain system if not necessary

    As a rule we toss them in the old brass pile when we get them.
    You can hunt around a plumbing shops "bone yard" and see if you can pick one up but since they are so easy to replace and cost so little I don't see why you just don't pick up a replacement. Good luck Tom
