So I got a set of new rollers and the service manual says nothing about pulling the e-clip first, but the note with the rollers says you must, I have been working on building a tool but it is getting thin, Any ideas how to pull the clip?

I am about a minute away from trying thatI found the easiest way was to smash the rollers with a chisel and then pull the e-clip after the roller is out of the way. Much easier than messing with building a tool. That's how I did it when I put in my Hi-Torque rollers. It was super easy that way.
I just about am sick when I go to the dealer ship, it is the little things that are bad priced, little clips, bolts, o rings the price is lotsAt least you know there's one in there, the first time I went to pull the bolt I had no idea about the clip and started removing the bolt which was tight so I thought it was tight or alot of loctite, well I got it out and buggered the bolt and the clip, so went to the dealer to replace the bolt and clip...................$45............................
I took a mini screwdriver and did some work to it, it is little and just can't seem to get it. What year did they have bolt troubles?People have made tools out of flattened nails or very thin screwdrivers with a bit of a hook filed in to the tip. I had broken rollers so I just busted them right off to get at the clip. When I re-assembled I bought new bolts and used the new clips that came with my high torque rollers. The new bolts have a new part# so I just wanted to make sure I got the newest updated bolts that is supposed to avoid the problem of the bolt heads popping off and causing major carnage to the clutches.
