We had granite put in a bath vanity. New drop in sink. Wife also said get wide spread individual faucets. everything is installed now.
But-- the distance from the drain hole over to where the faucet's lift rod is, has changed.
In the old setup- " a plastic vanity top with moulded in sink had the drain near the back of the sink, and a 4 inch centerset faucet on the sink edge ) -- distance from the faucet lift rod to the drain horizontally was about 4 and 1/2 inches.
Now with the drop in sink, its drain is in the sink center not the back , the lip edge of the drop in sink adds an inch , and another distance (about an inch) over to the faucet spout- the lift rod to drain horizontal distance is now about 9 and 1/2 inches
This increased distance is causing me problems getting the lift rod and the pop-up actuator rod to work- the actuator rod (with the white ball) is too short- I have tried putting an offset in the lift rod strap but its a mess.
Are there any other ways to do this? Also now have a stop valve interference issue
