Is it a special type of circlip tool or just use normal ones. I'm trying to get transfer box end housing,where the prop comes out off. Thanks.

Pretty sure they are Internal/External Snap Rings (Little different to Circlip) Pesky buggers to remove, until you've done a few. If Circlip pliers wont work? Have had success with a couple of flat head screwdrivers to pry them out (internal)

Thanks,got normal circlip pliers just thought there might be some with flat ends to get a better grip on the ends.
