Man, this is a great list.

I can use more advice.  I'm putting new rear wheel cylinders on.  The workshop
manual talks about a retaining plate and a spring plate, both of which I've
managed to put on over the rubber dust cover (with the help of silicone
grease).

But the picture breakout in my workshop manual shows a "distance piece" that
should be going over the top of the retaining plate.  Yet it seems to me that
there is absolutely no room left for the distance piece.

Am I missing a step?  Should I grind the POR 15 from the back plate and try
again (it's not that thick)?  Or is the distance piece optional for if you
need it?  Or maybe there's a trick for installing them?
