In attached photo that shows toliet drain, I need to move the drain 2 inches towards the back foundation footing (Not the footing to the left). So, rather than cut that 2″ vent line and the cleanout (barely visible on the right side), I’m considering adding two 1/8 bends where the plastic tape is now. I need to move the drain two inches and really dont want to use an offset flange since the 3inch looks too constricting for a toliet. Question: Is it ok to have two 1/8 bends in the horizontal plane ? How would you deal with this. The 2 inch move is needed cause I wont be able to handle the fact that the toilet wont be centered on the opening next to the cabinet up above.
thanks
wait, nevermind, there is no way to fit any 22 degree or whatever couplings in that tight space.

Yeah, I was wondering how you'd fit two 22s in that space.
You might be able to make do with some sort of rubber fitting.
Good idea, I'll try it.
The higher up you put the 1/16 bend the more the offset.
Cut the pipe where the plumber's tape is. Insert a coupler and turn the vertical section 22.5 degrees. Put a 1/16 bend in the vertical section to get it back to plumb.
If you mean the 90 that turns vertical, it's a 4 x 3 inch medium sweep 90 often called a closet bend.
Yes, it is 4x3. Went under there today ready to do it and brain kicked in and decided to let plumber friend do.I'll
post the pict when he's done.
