Step 4Mark the rod with a sharpie
This step is the most tricky.
Since we will be bending an angle in the rod, we need to mark the top of the rod with a short reference line down it's length so we can bend the rod in the proper direction once it is screwed all the way onto the valve assembly.
This is where you'll need to do some trial fitting for clearance.
The rod will be bent about 10-15 degrees downward. This should give you an idea of about where the ball will ride when connected to the end of the rod.
Make sure you plan to bend the rod so the ball will not rub against any of the toilet innards.
Put a mark on the rod about where you think the apex of the bend should be.
