yea...ive come to the conclusion that im just incompetent. everyone else gets theirs out with ease. My buddy has taken them out before and I had him help me, but the best we could do was budge it outwards just a bit. ive used every screwdriver known to man.

Thats odd I used two screwdrivers and worked one in then put another in and just kept rotating until I could pull the snap ring out by hand then i just gave the baffle a little wiggle and it was out.

Mine came right out, used 2 flat head screwdrivers, one was a "carb" screwdriver (those little pocket ones that liek 1/8-1/4 inch wide) it came right out, the challange was keeping it from rotating.
