When I replaced mine I noticed that a section of the rod had stripped threads. As an extra measure, I replaced the stock nut with two stainless nylock nuts, one on either side of the long clevis device, one on either side. It now works marvellously. Two notes: You need to leave it a little loose so the assembly can rotate. Also it was difficult to get back in place, but once in, it functions great.

I took mine out of the tub and put only the face plate back on because the plunger was causing the water to drain slowly. I could adjust it, but it is so corroded and if I remember right it also didn't hold water very well. Now maybe the water in the tub won't rise and half fill the tub during a shower. Don't really need the drain to ever hold water anyways and If I ever need to fill the tub for anything like maybe washing a large quanity of dishes or getting sliced up by my cats for trying to give them a bath I can just put some sort of plug over the drain hole.

This might be a dumb question but I am going to ask it anyway. If you pull out the lever mechanism and make the adjustment, will it automatically go back into place when you re-insert it into the tub or do you have to jiggle the blocker part of it (at the end) so that it will go where it needs to go to stop the drain? Did that make sense?

Yes it does make sense and it is a good question. You may have to jiggle the whole thing a little just to get it going in there (look at 2:15 of this video) but once the whole thing starts going in you will have no problems. Hope that helps and feel free to ask any other questions you may have.

Melissa Conn so, its possible the drain was adjusted way too low, meaning the stopper is not going way too far down and bottoming out. You have to find the right adjustment. It can be a little frustrating to keep pulling it out, adjusting, putting it in, checking it, pulling it out, etc... i guess the other possibility is the stopper is damaged in some way so gets stuck when it goes into the drain.

Don't know what you mean "lock onto the lead." If you mean getting a vice grips or something to lock onto the rod, it might work. Or you might just break the connection that connects rod and drain plug. I might try, with a little pressure, trying to jiggle it to see if maybe you can unfreeze it.

Good question. The mechanism “bottoms out” meaning it can only drop to the bottom of the drain. That is a good thing because, just like your question is alluding to, it would take a lot of adjusting to find the perfect position.

I guess it's just a matter of tinkering with it until I get it at the right spot.

Looks good, but I noticed you pushed the lever UP to block the drain and that the faceplate was installed with the narrow part UP and therefore the faceplate was attached upside down.

@JayferRattrap6 жыл бұрын
Christine Quiriy Not really sure what you are referring to. It would look awful funny if you did that because the knock out that acts as an emergency overflow would show if you placed it upside down. You would see the knockout. No matter how you placed it, the trip lever style only works to block the drain if you pull the lever up. As I explain, the connection rod is solid which means as I lift the lever up, the connected stop goes down. As the lever goes down, the drain stop rises. Thanks for watching!
@chrristineq6 жыл бұрын
Hmm. I was confused because in the video, when the faceplate is screwed on, it looks to be attached correctly, i.e., with the "knockout" positioned down (at 6 o'clock). However, after you detach it and hold it in your hands to show how moving the lever up and down moves the plunger up and down, the knockout is positioned up; at least that's how it looks to me. I took this to mean that when it was screwed on, the knockout was positioned up, but when I went back and looked at the video, it looks like the faceplate meets the tub at the top.
@JayferRattrap6 жыл бұрын
Gotcha. As I look at the video you are right. The lever system works the same way whether you have it right side up or not and that was the relationship I was trying to describe. Whether or not you attach it right-side-up or upside-down though, the tapered stop would still fit the same way.

I redid the bathroom in a 1928 bungalow and ended up replacing all the cast iron because it was so rotted. If your drains are like those, that plunger is probably stronger than your pipes. That is probably where your problem originated meaning old cast iron pipes corroding and the brass plunger probably seating improperly because of it. If you are hell bent on trying to remove it and getting in the wall is not something you want to do, you might try sacrificing a good long screwdriver, making a hook at the end, trying to hook the plunger, attaching a vice grips and giving it a good try that way.
