: ...because the room width is exactly the width of the tub.
: I can cut up the old tub, but how do I get the new one in ?
: Is knocking out a wall the only solution ?
you will have to take out the sheet rock on the end walls, if you have a tub only, stand the tub up and lay it down away from the faucet end. if it is the same length (5') it should go in, a little work but i have done it many a time with cast iron tubs and by my self. good luck.
