Trying to replace this faucet at my mom's house and having a time trying to remove the old one here could use some advice.

Big problem is this old one is held on to a bracket that's really near impossible for me to get to I'm looking for ideas on cutting it out or something this is my first time doing this.

Get a basin wrench. Cheap ones are like $10 at the hardware store

>Get a basin wrench

Or literally start cutting.

You're junking it anyway.

How the fuck would you cut that out without scratching the shit out of everything

I cut off the soft lines with sidecutters or snips then remove any hardware holding the faucet. Basin wrench gets the plastic nut for the sprayer. Socket on an extension or a long screwdriver gets the plated steel bracket.

a basin wench will not fit inside this mount , there is a set of wenchs made of sheetmetal that works for this but you need to soak it in wd40 , the wenches i speak of come with a bar that slides through the end of the wenches making them t-handles and will get this off easy

i dealt with a similar problem. threads were rotten and siezed up. i used my oscillating saw with a carbide blade. it fit up in there with the use of some choice words and was able to cut the large thin nut on opposite sides. its one of those tools that will get you out of a jam and if you own one will find plenty of uses for it.

Thanks yall I ended up just bending them and breaking them off, didn't realize they were so soft. Mission accomplished boys!

We did it 4chan! Anon's mom is proud of him!
