Default Shower removal

This is a short note on shower removable on older pt models
First off even though it looks like it’s two piece it’s not the factory installed it then fiberglassed it together so unless you want to cut it apart and reglass it will not come out of bus period .
Short of cutting a hole in the roof or removing body off frame and cutting hole in floor
So I hope this will save someone work in the future.
For shower valves as others have said work through the front and use pex
Cut access hole bigger if needed.
You can take out sink it is just siliconed to the frame this I didn’t know until I got it out would also have saved extra work
Good luck with what ever project your on
After posting this I did come up with a way to get shower out
Remove all cabinets in front of shower if refrigerator is there remove it
Then remove all cabinets and closets on opposite side remove bathroom walls then you may be able to tip/ rotate shower out
It will not rotate front to rear needs to be to the side.

Will it come out if you remove windshield? I've heard of refrigerators done this way.

i scrapped the sp,but i could not see a way to get it out otherwise.

I agree I worked at it for way to long then decided to change plans
I cut the valve out and am now fabricating some parts to install and new one using pex
I can get floor replaced except under one wall
It’s going to work out ok
Main reason for the post is to let others in the future know what’s in store for them
Bottom line reuse moen valve if at all possible
And the valve has restrictors in it so many times a cartridge will not fix it
You need to take big straight blade screw driver 1/2turn only it is not threaded don’t get all ape on it like I did
Save your self a ton of work
Thanks for the reply Randy
