I can't find a large enough pair of retaining ring pliers anywhere. Closest think I have is a pair of 11 inch needle nose pliers with a 45 degree tip. They work to grab it, but I can't get close to getting it in there. I'm about ready to get a hammer. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I updated the pic in the original post. It is the ring that holds the comp. housing on...
Sorry for the poor pic.
I am heading over to my buddy's now to let him take a crack at it. My patience is gone.
