Hey guys, I'm wondering if there was any way I could fit in a tub with 46 1/2 x 27 length and width in a crevice of 46 inch x 28 inch? Can I get each side of the tub sawed off a 1/4 inch? Or maybe some other way? By the way, the company is American Standard and the tub material is Ceramic steel.

Thanks in advance.

holabuster,

You need 46 1/2" stud to stud. No way around that fact. Something has to be moved or replace stud locations.

Hope this helps!
