To repair it correctly is actually easier than anything else you can do.

You just have to have the right tools and the ability.

Cut the pipe then ream out the fitting with the fitting saver bit. Then install your new fittings and pipe.
It would take me about an hour.
 
To answer the original question…..

A level would be used to level a closet flange.
 
So I managed to attach a couple pieces of wood from underneath by using some wires to hold it and then a ver small clamp to hold it while drilling screws threw it. I used DAP Plastic Wood wood filler and cut a piece of wood to encircle the Flange. I was able to screw in the adjustable ring with no issue all of the screws hit wood and bit tight. The flange was in solid did not move. Installed the toilet with the Danco All-in-One Toilet Installation. Its flushng no leaks. So hopefully it will be fine.

True--except my daughter has a newborn and didn't want me rippng up and redoing the flooring. If I had it to do over again that's what I would have started with from the get-go. But I promised her it would be done this past weekend and it's done! :)
 
You were not asked to rip up the floor. Somebody took the picture of the pipe so somebody should of been able to work
underneath. I understand about your daughters baby but when someone gets on here and ask a question and then tells us
that he can do the job just as good as a pro plumber just ticks me off.
