power steering pump removal
I'm a stuck on pulling the power steering pump in prep for engine drop (following Clarks write up)
There's two bolts on the pump's pivot, one from the rear, came out fine, the one on the front has a nut (behind the pulley), then there's another but on the inside of the mounting ear so the bolt won't come out far enough to allow the pump to come out. It "almost" does but not quite. Is there a secret here?
'87 924s, father/son resurrection, then an engine fire and a second resurrection under way!

Just had to lift and twist the right way and it popped right out, not sure I did it the "right" way, I took the pump off the bracket, maybe I was supposed to just remove the bracket? Anyway, it's off.
