Is the new shower pan preformed, as in fiberglass, or is it going be assembled of ceramic tile?
In photo #3, I see the edge of a concrete slab.
Will that slab and the old metal shower base be removed, or do you intend to set the new base on the slab, just removing the old metal shower base?
Does the existing drain spud align with the drain in the new shower pan?
Thanks.
It looks like you'll need to also remove the nut so that you'll have a flat surface, and with the nut removed the metal base should lift off.
Does the new shower pan have the drain flange already installed or is that an after set install.
Whether it's an after set, or not, you'll need to make sure that the galv. drain nipple is clean, and the new fits, so that you get a good seal.
If this all works out, be sure and caulk around the drain hole in the pan and the slab, before you set the drain.
Use a wire brush to clean the shreds and apply some WD40 or PB Blaster.
Depending upon the height or depth, you'll probably need to cut the drain spud off at some where in its length.
