Dinomartino- That's a great idea :D

Anyway, I hate to see you go from the board.

I found a horse-riding mounting block to be really helpful for working on the water pump, but low back pain seems to be unavoidable after that job.

Oh, and I forgot to mention the Aluminum power steering pump bracket that had no bushings and a steel bolt runing through it - I had to cut it off using a dremel, which took me 5 hours in the freezing cold, under the damn car because I couldn't fit any decent tools onto the bolts - which had bimetallic corrosion holding them together. HOORAY to whoever decided to save three pounds by making that bracket out of aluminum.... SERIOUSLY?
