I would like to thank everyone for all of their input, but I still have not received answers to the following questions:
What is the function of these retaining clips?
Is it safe to drive w/o these clips? I have gotten answers on both sides of the equation (yes it is safe and no it isn't safe).
Why would putting the clip on the wrong way cause the brake pedal to go almost to the floor?
Once again, thanks ahead of time for any and all help.
