Pulling the pesky slave cylinder bracket: as was mentioned in the post I trimmed, use a grinder to cut a cheap 13mm box wrench in half. Put it over the pesky fastener underneath the bracket and stuff the underside of the bracket with a rag or newspaper. Then it becomes an easy job, giving you two free hands to unbolt with.

I've heard that lever doesn't come off so easily on a lot of vanagons.
