: Ok, I checked my measurements again. The top of the flange is sticking up 1/4" from the floor. If I take the extension off, the old flange is sitting 1/4" lower than the floor. So, it seems like either way, my flange is on the outer limits of what is acceptable. Since my soil line is cast iron, can I use a plastic extender? The extender I currently have is cast iron and 5/8" thick. I have found plastic extenders in increments of 1/4" starting at 1/4" thickness. I would take the extender off and use a thick bowl wax.
