a couple of top questions?

Wild cat I was looking at the pump last night how do you take it off of the metal piece it is sitting on? It looks like it is attached with rubber grommets what a ***** that will be trying to get those back in. If you know a better way please let me know thanks Pat

The rubber grommets actually slide back in easy- I just put some dish soap on them.

In regards to the hydraulic lines: If you have never replaced them... its worth the $100! When I had my interior out to put in my new carpet, I moved the lines and one of them cracked right in my hand! After pulling them out, I discovered they were obviously the originals and very brittle. Glad I did this BEFORE I put my new carpet in. Who knows when they were gonna blow... When removing... I just wrapped an old towel around them- the only fluid that came out was what was in the lines.
