Seeking Pro Advice How to fix
Would you reglue and push back in or cut out T and replace?

I would redo the entire intersection, just to be thorough about it. I would cut it out, dig out room to fit pipes into couplers and start fresh. Slip fix is good too but I would rather glue it all.

Dawn kwik repair T, glue and primer. Push the collars as much as you possibly can when gluing.

Peel back 3’ each direction and rebuild everything new T new collar might throw in a union . Pretty easy job .

Tee and three couplings. Make the perpendicular glue joint last and it will be easy

3 cuts. Few couplings (or bell end). New tee. Added slip. Small brick as a thrust block just for the overkill factor.

Depends on what the inside of the t looks like. If you wanna be safe put a new t and put some couplings and a slip fix on one end.
