I am wanting to tear out fiberglass tub enclosure?
I want to replace it with a shower but I can't seem to find and shower pans that will fit the same drain opening. I plan on tiling the walls around the shower and putting in glass doors. I just can't move the drain. I don't have a problem with the hot and cold water. Does anyone know where they sell shower pans to replace tub enclosures?????

Go to home center ask plumbing dept to order you custom made cultured marble shower base. Measure the distance from existing drain from 2 walls. Take that measurement to home center. Have them quote you price on this shower base.
It will be fairly heavy. You can set new base then put cement board on walls in prep for ceramic, or you can order full custom fit sheets of cultured marble in lots of colors and styles to cover the 3 shower walls, they make corner trim pcs. for the corners. There are only seams in corners where panels meet. Caulk them with clear silicone, install corners and caulk them also. You can order soap dishes, seats, and other access. to match your color.
Cultured marble is a man made product, very high gloss, easy to clean. My 4' x 3' shower was $1200 including the base, 3 wall panels, soap dish and corner trims.
Very nice.
