I read in the paper (2/12/84 Bosto Globe) how that maneuver to recover that piece of hardware that went floating out of the cargo bay during a spacewalk was a remarkable success. It consisted of the pilot using the thrusters to move the shuttle a few feet so that one of the astronauts (who was tethered) could recover the thing.
