the tool called a snap ring pliers are manditory.
you do not want them to fly to parts unknown
or stress them and make them useless.
32 is just a snap ring, you need the tool... this tool is needed for all transmission work, or all things with snap rings... (circlips, some call them) they are spring steel, and if over stretched they are damaged.
think how bad one falling off a running car would be not fun.... they need to fit tight back on ... later.
put the dremel too far from car. out of reach it has no place in trans work, for 2 reasons (metal dust) and all it does is damage things...
the first tool to buy is a real snap ring pliers.
if not , you will do more damage than good.
make sure the 33/34 part is not missing.... since you see signs of hacking,, photo the hacks, so i can see what the jokers did./?

there are many tools to buy in this catagory. some are expensive,( due to working forwards or backwards. and many bits)
and others are cheap like $15 that are just expanding (say) and just fixed bit. simple.
then sizes.
I think cheap, expanding medium snap ring tool does all these rings..(harbor fright (pun) has em... as do all autostores)
in this box. never use a hammer inside the box. (with a wood buffer, ok)
If the box is still good, and rings. good.
then you can install bearings with no damage, the box will run another 200k.... easy.
the first rule of box repair, is "first do no harm". (no damage added at all)

they (HF) have a 3 dollar tool that might work or above. kit.
i have like 10 of them... from motorcycle sizes up.
here is one of my favorites. of the 100s of types sold. (overwhelming types... yes)
KD tools.

the cluster out ,if i remember correct , needs force from front to rear. 33 off. 35 off. 50 off.
then with brass or wood buffer (drive pin brass never steel) or wood hit 28 with all snap rings off. (for wood use hard wood dowels)
i forgot the details, now... but it is minor tricky, not too hard.
if you look at it that large cluster front gear is not going forward so to the rear it must go.
i might have even hit the center shift of 27, with my brass drift pin, (HF sells them cheap! these pin kits of brass) the brass will do no HARM.
putting the cluster back , is reverse of above. in fact the 27 on last might help....
my 29 bearing was balls. (unitized, unlike the photo)
I should have documented the cluster work,, but forgot to , back then, but I do remember, standing and looking hard, before, attacking it.... pondering it.
ill check the FSM book later to see if it has any helpful advice...
CHEERS !
