[TR] 3rd gear snapring

[Michael Lang]

I have now used it to remove the snap rings from a couple of
transmissions. It works really slick. Way better than trying to
manipulate 3 or 4 screw drivers at the same time.

The snap ring tool that I've got has a threaded rod in the end of it
that acts as a puller.

Thanks,

Mike
