I cannot for the life of me get the first c-clip off the diff. I'm in the middle of a Wavetrac install. Has anyone had trouble with these c-clips? I've never had this kind of trouble before, even on axles.
I'm able to work screwdrivers in the sides and wedge it in some, but my 12" needle nose pliers will NOT hold onto it. It seems to be a very heavy duty clip. And I know that as soon as I get the first clip, the second will be a breeze since there will be no load on it.
Any help? Tips? I've already busted up my knuckles pretty bad, going to have a nice scar on the middle finger knuckle.
