That's 1 1/4" see the fucking "curvy" thing, that's called a trap they are ALL 1 1/2" post 1960's Sink drain used to be 1 1/4" it is now 1 1/2" showers are 2" But fuck it, you all go the way you want. lol.. the butthurt is soooo obvious.

Books on plumbing, most hardwares stores have them, buy one and read it.
Here's a hint, R-E-D-U-C-E-R. Look in the book. |

A kitchen sink is inch and a half. Stick around and let's hear from the OP. |

Whether he replaces the tail or not, he is still going to need a flange to hold it in the trap. |

Quoted: OP you need to check if the top pipe is really too small and just needs a extension. This is how they should go together. http://www.mobilehomerepair.com/media/img/kitchdrain9.jpg That's what I ended up getting, was an extension, the pipe was too small and I would have had to order a custom cap but instead I got a big rubber washer I'm just going to cut to size and squeeze it under the cap so its water proof, I will take a pic after I do the install. |

Bicycle inner tube cut off, and two hose clamps. Or a piece of car radiator hose and two hose clamps. |

Quoted: I went with an extension tube, with two slip joint's the top one's hole was to big so I had to cut some rubber to fit in there to water proof seal it. Also the smallest slip joints I could find were 6 inches, so I took a hack saw to it and cut it to size. I'm still going to use some water proof caulking on all it before I run the sink though. edit: didn't realize the pic was so shitty I took it on my cell phone. http://i53.tinypic.com/v8hhx.jpg Christ on a cracker... |

Quoted: Why use caulk when there is JB weld? Because in 10 years when I update my sinks again I want to be able to unscrew all that crap. |
|
I'm glad you almost have it sorted out, Reservist.
You did use the plastic washer on the lower joint when you put the extension on, right? You can get a plastic washer for the top, where it runs into the 1 1/4" pipe, that is made to adapt 1 1/2" to 1 1/4". It's that part that Patriot has been talking about. Twenty five cents or so. Much better than rubber and caulk. And I apologize for asserting erroneously that the pipes were both inch and a half. Clearly the drop tube from the sink is inch and a quarter and I was wrong. Sorry to drag strife into the thread. |

I understand that, but it seems like a plumber gave the correct advice early in the thread and everyone argued with him for 2 pages. And now you have a hacked up sink drain with rubber shoved in it and caulk holding the water in. Ya know what, I'm staying out of this |

My wife said the size of the pipe didn't matter. Haha... I hear they say that to guys who have small pipes |
|
Quoted:
The piece you need is called a "reducer." here is your answer. get the sizes of the 2 pipes and go to home depot or whatever and get a reducer. |
|
You need to find yourself a 4' piece of cow gut, then cut it down to the proper length.
Next, call HD and ask for the proper CG connector and clamps. You're Welcome. |

Here is a pic of the part (its the blue washer in the PVC male), its probably like a 0.50$ part. |
