anyone out there ever tried R&R on a clutch master cylinder for this model? I am a pretty decent shade tree mechanic, but there seems to be about two inches shy of clearance to pull out the old cylinder. The engineers, in their infinite wisdom, designed dual end threaded headless bolts. So, after removing the two nuts in the firewall, there's no room to pull out the unit with the long extended bolts still threaded in the cylinder. I really don't want to resort to a mini hacksaw to cut the bolts. The online manuals I've found say just remove the nuts and pull it out. Yeah...RIGHT!

If anyone has a workaround, I would love to hear it and would be most grateful.
