Hello Bud. You will need to order TB123B for the unit.

Everett, Once you're sure the tub is centered and seated on the mounting stem, Tighten the clamping nut, by hand using the spanner wrench as tight as possible. Use a hammer and add 1/8 turn by tapping on the wrench handle very carefully(don't hit the tub, you may chip the porcelain) 3 or 4 taps usually does it.
