hi folks, got a problem here. I am replacing an old american standard wall hung toilet with a new Glenwall. bolts on fine and seems to line up. I have two problems. First, they added thin wainscoting, so the mating part of the carrier mount (bell? nipple?) is about 1/4 inch behind the surface. Second problem is that that part also has some corrosion and in fact, there are a few holes in it. This part seems to be thin copper while the T that it is either soldered or screwed into seems very heavy and in ok condition. local plumbing supplies only seem to have the usual floor mount wax rings. I did find a foam ring, but wonder how durable it is over years (have an older one in the basement which is hardened and cracked), and don't think it will compress enough to the bell or nipple of the carrier. no one locally has the felt wax type that I have read about. Do any of you have experience finding or replacing the thin copper part or is there an insert that would seal well? I thought of adding some plywood to the wall and attaching a 3" floor flange and siliconing it into the brass T, then using the foam ring. any ideas?
Thanks
