Bruce,
That is what I thought happened to the brush piece too, I can remember seeing the pictures of it sitting without the pump and everything. I was told it got remounted on a Dodge chassis...having said that I just called someone else up (someone in the know) and they told me that your story is correct and that the person who gave me the story about the Dodge is an idiot (his words not mine).
