What is the best way to get these snaprings out as they have no lugs so normal circlip pliers are no use. I have in the past cut them with a dremel and using a screwdriver to prise out but its easy to leave scores on the drum[Image: gazy9eme.jpg]

Big socket from other side and tap it out

Sharp punch and hammer. One or two good hits will split it. Then re-new
