The plastic guard ring that goes just behind the rearend yoke has come loose and is spinning on the yoke. I'm scared it will eat into the front hogs head seal. I want to remove it without taking off the front yoke for obvious reasons. Has this happened to anyone else? ANy ideas how to get it off?

Do you have room to get a cut-off tool back in there? Or since it's just plastic, break it.

Well I got it off. I split it all the way around into 2 thin rings, then I cut through each one with a screwdriver tip and pulled each split ring out with needle nose pliers. Hope the seal isn't too far gone.
