Snap ring

BIGOL880 · Feb 13, 2016

I'm doing some transmission shaft work on a 58 Oliver 880. I'm struggling with the snap rings on the shafts. What is the best way to remove them and reinstall ???

Not familiar with that particular tractor but I assume you have snap ring pliers, and large enough ones? They are not cheap but necessary

I just gone done working on a super 88 transmission. Knipex snap ring pliers handled it easily.

I worked at reinstalling a retaining ring for probably forty minutes this afternoon. I have plenty of tools for the ones with holes in them, but this was the type without holes. When I removed it I ground a cheap pair of pliers to engage the ends of the ring when I wasn't able to find the right tool. They weren't so much help with reinstalling it though.

If you are working on a transmission, im assuming they are the snaprings without the holes in them. This is what you need.
