Default Re: Removing a snap ring

I have a pair of pliers that I got from Sears that work wonders for this application. No idea what they are for, but they have these little flat knurled pads on them that do a good job of getting in there and spreading the ring just enough to get if off.

I did purchase Mac's "refined" snap rings to make it easier putting it back to together.

Clem,

Let me know if you want to borrow those pliers. I'll mail them to you. Would take about 2 days to get to you.
