PTO snap ring

 

There is a "snap ring" that holds the hex nut in place located on the shaft of the PTO. The 2 holes (in the snap ring clip) seem smaller than the standard size.
I purchased an entire snap ring set that came with the internal/external plies but the pliers are too large for the holes. The new snap rings should fit (?) It's just getting that snap ring off of there that I can't seem to figure out?
I want to pull out the PTO this Saturday or Sunday so I want to get the correct ones from Amazon quickly.
Does anyone know what pliers I need because I know someone out there must had done this in the past.
Tnx!
Mark
 

Mark:

I have had my snap ring pliers set a long time, and it had a small diameter set that fits that snap ring.? I may be home again this weekend and can measure mine.

Thanks Peter! I just purchased the set that Stan recommended and hopefully that will work.
