Moving Shower Drain

[Andy O.]

I had a corner shower in my master bath upstairs. It had a leak behind it and I had to rip out the entire shower. Now I am wanting a new 60" x 32" shower. Problem the drain has to moved 5" over. The question is if I cut the drain pipe going up to the drain and put two 90° elbows on it to make a "S" pipe just the two elbows no other pvc pipe. Will it work without moving the old p trap? Please someone answer. I'm desperate because the pipe goes under my upstairs floor and has a "Y" right after the p trap .. hard to move

I wouldn’t do that. I’d cut the old one out and install to the new location 5” away.
