The point being Carl that if the circlip was the correct fit it wouldn't have to be opened up. A proper circlip should spring back to the correct size after compression, if it's made of monkey metal then it's not man enough for the job. You have to compress it to install it, you should be able to use a pair of circlip pliers and just pop it in, job done
My advice to anyone with a cougar is to source a decent circlip of the correct size before building the diff
