Just wanted to introduce myself. My names D from Southern CA and Im currently replacing the garbage disposal under my grandmother's sink and ran into some seriously clogged pipes at the stub out or sanitary trap elbow(unsure of exact names). Anyways, I'm familiar with basic construction, plumbing, etc... but I have some questions that I was hoping someone could help me with.
Here's what I started with. The disposal in the pic was put in roughly 10 to 12 years ago and the pipes were never replaced at that time. Mostly everything under there was done in the early 80s/ late 70s. You can see how clogged they were.
A couple pics are of the final stage im currently at with new disposal and a longer (steel) stub out. Im thinking about reducing the out to 4"to 6" (currently 8").
Any suggestions? Thanks all and nice to meet everyone
