Early 1970 CentralBrass Two Valve Shower Faucet
I Have a Early 1970 CentralBrass two valve shower faucet.
I need to replace the washers,but I can not remove the brass
tubes.So,I can remove the stems. I removed the stem seals and unscrew the stem,but the washer end is to big to be remove with out removing the bonnet.Any advice,Thanks

The brass tubes should unscrew counter-clockwise. Spray a little WD-40 on them at the bonnet to see if that doesn't help.
You may still need a set of valve sockets to get the valves out after you remove the bonnets.
You can do a Search above on Shower Faucets for more info.
Good Luck!
