Yes there is the "grab nut" on the protruding end of the booster push rod. The adjusting nut(I've been calling it) looks similar to an acorn nut, is really a hex on the end of the threaded rod which screws into the chromed push rod.

Since there are no flats on the "grab nut", just the "teeth"-14?, I can only hold it with locking pliers. The "grab nut" appears to be formed on the end of the push rod.

So, the assembly order looks like: chrome push rod - grab nut - threaded rod - hex

I'm going to look into spacers and shims before I just grind the thing off!
