[QUOTE="Seadog, post: 3156255, member: 9018"] The rebuild kit should come with a special two in one tool. It’s been a while but I don’t think you need to take the backing plate off. It has an Allen wrench on one side and the other is a split spaner wrench. Looks like a tiny sling shot. The shower handle has an inset Allen nut on the bottom side. Once loosened the handle comes right off. Then loosen the metal dome cap. Then you should see where the spaner wrench is used. Lefty loosy. Some times this part you are trying to take off with the spaner is plastic or brass. Either way our Oklahoma hard water likes to sieze things up. Once off the rest should be easy and self explanatory. Replace the old parts with the new and put it all back together. I Never did learn the names to any of the parts but I always just called it reverse engineering [/QUOTE]
