Another note. The big snap ring is what secures the main shaft end
bearing into the case. That bearing may not want to come out of the
case when you are pulling up on it (the case). What I do is place
some rags over the bearing and tap it with a mallet while pulling
the case up, thus popping the bearing out of the case.
