I removed an old garden tub and we are installing a new soak tub with an end drain. The p trap is below the slab pretty far...I'm already 12" deep, and it's offset by at least a foot. How can I tie in the new tub drain to the current drain system without using the included flex drain tubing? Can I use 90s with proper slope to the main drain that then goes into the p trap? Or another solution?

Dig up and expose the trap. Cut the old trap out. Install a new trap at the proper drain rough in dimension of the new tub. Install a new free standing tub drain.

Thanks. I definitely know of the included rough in you added here. I was trying to see if there is a way to get around digging up old trap or not. Can I not use 90s or something else or is it a must to move and re-do the trap? (In TX)
