LOL. Yes, if you can see it, you can do the magnet trick. I dropped a socket in the vicinity of the PS redervoir, and the RH pulleys a month or so ago, and have not located it yet. Heard a clunk and then tried to look, too dark, took a flashlight, still could not locate it. Had to use another one from the "spares" or I would still be looking for it. Haven't heard any new noise in the right front yet, so maybe it dropped out in one of my bumpy drives. Yes, sometimes things take longer than they should. LOL.
