flush valve parts

[onitsud]

i bought a 2 inch flush valve replace ment kit for my toilet after getting the tank off i discovered the part is too big to fit my older 1955 eljer toilet. I don't know where I can buy one that is smaller that I can use,.

Eljer didn't have a flush valve in 1955. The flush ball seat was part of the tank casting. From what I remember they used lift wires and a flush ball. There also was a tank to bowl gasket that fit onto the bowl as there was no flush valve.

I also have an old Eljer toilet. It also has a 2" hole in the bottom of the tank. Fluidmaster Universal 2' flush valves seem to be 2'ID and more than 2" OD so they wont fit. Anybody know what I need and where to get it?
