RE: [DML] Re: Angle Drive Installation (Strange Things)

There are indeed two sizes of nuts, I was told by Warren.  Sears and Pep
Boys both carry them (now always with the other sockets at Pep Boys).
 
As far as the snap ring, why not spend $15 on a pair of snap ring
pliers?  I bought a pair to use when replacing my AC idler bearings.  No
clearance to get them in there?

Thanks, I returned my 15inch breaker bar to Sears , and got a 24"
breaker bar from Autozone, It worked, Then I spent more time trying to
get that snap ring out then I did on any part or the project. I
recommend using 3" nails to grab the holes of the snap rings, finally
worked. Thanks Again.

yes, leverage. I also experienced the issue of not being able to 
get the proper leverage to loosen the nut when I replaced my angle 
drive. I ended up using a hydraulic jack under the wrench handle, 
it worked perfectly. Give it a try.
