Angry Bathtub--Drain--Triplever Replacement
I'm trying to replace the triplever assembly on my bathtub, but I can't get the old triplever assemby out!! Does anyone know the trick to doing this? I read the directions for the new ones and thought "oh, this should be easy!"....no project ever seems to go well after having those thoughts!

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, I can get a picture, but what angles are you needing? I can't get underneath of the tub, and I can't get behind the tub without cutting a hole the wall--since I can't get ahold of my shoddy excuses for landlords, cutting a hole in the wall (while satisfying) is probably not a good idea.

I don't know that there is a "make" of the fixtures....how do you tell?? All I know is that they are/were cheap--just like everything else in the house!

Since he makes all the money, I can't actually "pay" him... He makes it and I spend it--wisely of course!
