| Post subject: | Snap Ring Tool Source to Install A904 Tailshaft Housing? |
I was able to remove the tailshaft housing from my 1987 A904 automatic transmission, but I simply cannot seem to manage the snap ring that must fit around the shaft bearing to install the new housing. I don't have a 1987 manual, but the 1970 manual I do have calls for a Miller tool C-3301A. Is it still the same number for 1987? Does anyone know another source for this tool? If SnapOn, part number? Also, is there a trick for easing the park lock control rod into the receptacle housing? TIA --Walt Jackson |

Lisle makes a great big set of snap ring pliers that work great; unfortunately, I no longer have the p/n... |

Harbor Frieght came through for me! I was amazed...after almost giving up because the usual places didn't have the big one on hand, I strolled into HF and there was a two pack...one that opens when you squeeze, one that closes when you squeeze. They are actually well made and cost about $6 for the pair. I was able to use them for the huge snapring on the tranny case to tailhousing snapring on a 833 too. rock '64d100 |

That sounds great! Do you have a part or stocking number, or some other means I can use to identify them when I go to my local Harbor Freight store or order online? Thanks. --Walt Jackson |

| Post subject: | Yep, number is 45326 at Harbor Freight |
Had to dig out the invoice...number is 45326, usually a whopping $9.99, on sale that day for $5.99! And as I say, pretty darn good pliers, too! They are by far the heaviest snap ring pliers I have, about 11 inches long and the little round end that goes in a snap ring hole is about 1/8 inch...not one of the tiny hair like ones. I may never use em again, but sure am keeping them! Good luck, rock '64d100 |

I went to a transmission shop yesterday, and saw what tool they use. Here's the Snap On part number: SRP3 It's $35.00 on the www.snapon.com web site. --Walt Jackson |

Isn't this axle snap ring too expensive? Or I might be wrong. I though it only ranges from $5+? Correct me if I am wrong.
