This was not my experience at all. There are two plumbing supply places near me and both said that the 1 1/4 parts are no longer available. Same at Lowe’s and HD. Nor was I able to find the parts online. A couple were available but not enough to make my repairs.
No idea why they would be available in one area and not another but weirder things have happened.
