Snap Ring Pliers for Hub Removal

[wa2be]

I'm trying to replace the wheel seals on my '99 4x4, and I need to use a set of snap ring pliers to take the hubs off. Problem is, the snap ring pliers I bought don't even come close to fitting into that tiny opening. Does anyone know if Ford makes a special tool for this, or does anyone make a really small set of snap ring pliers that will fit in there?

There are smaller ones available somewhere. Try using 2 ice picks...

I used a screw driver and a punch. Came right off.
