Default 48 Ford rear grease seal snap ring

How do you get the snap ring out in front of grease seal in rear hub. Thanks

Very carefully, using one or two very skinny screwdrivers to fish-out one side. Do yourself a huge favor and file/grind the opposite angle on one of the ends (so it's easier next time) BEFORE you reinstall the snap ring! Choose carefully WHICH end you decide to file, 'cuz it makes a difference!
