After you remove some drywall the tub will tilt the hole using the open stud bay----tubs are usually 14 to 17 inched tall and will go through and common door opening.
Most tubs can be remove whole after the drain and overflow have been removed---
Some times cracking a cast iron tub with a sledge hammer is the easiest way----
I hate busting up a cast iron tub with a sledge hammer. Be sure to wear ear plugs.
Is sometimes the best way to remove the old tub.l
