If you time it right you can raise skirts with that on startup (but you'll need to point it up a bit ), or set off car alarms!
Really nice, now you have me thinking about doing that!
That's what I thought. I had it under glass for a couple of hours while the camera charged up. Then I released it where I had found it and snapped the pics. After it has remained motionless for about 2 minutes it took off in a hurry into the brush from whence it came. Hopefully it will eat some of the Japanesse beatles we have around here.
Ha, Ebay - 12 bucks!.
I ended up grinding the bolt too. Just torque it in place first then mark it for grinding.
Did you see the postion of the steering rack in the backwards pump pic?
Yea, you could cut the arms away if you were carefull, but given the chance to remove the pin and put in a fresh one with anti-seize I think it would not be the best thing to do.
The Service manual has a detail on the reaction disk. Here's a thread on a booster that had one drop.

My tank is full of crud too. When I first installed the new lines I had to change the filter within 5 minutes of running. I flushed it out by running the pump into a 5 gallon container and installed a new filter, but it still plugs up about every 3-500 miles of driving.
Actually, it makes it dangerous!
I'll be putting some toe in on the rear tomorrow for sure, then when it's driveable I'll take it to the shop for alignment.
My spongy brake problem was the reaction disk. I bleed the snot out of it, replaced the MC twice to no avail. Then I bought a new booster and made sure the reaction disk stayed in place during the install and the problem was solved.
Hopefully the front wont be troublesome. I'll run 225's up there and hope for the best.
J, That is without spacers, just coilovers and Ross's billet 5 lug hubs. Everything fits straight up.
Wheels are 18" X 8" with 245/45/18 tires. Looks like with a little fender lip rolling I could easily fit 255's under there.
With the 225 lb coilovers and illuminas set at 5 there is only about 1/4" of travel on the body when I push down hard on the bumper.
Guess I have to do the fronts now.
