The snap ring was on the pto shaft 45 seconds after I opened the package.

Of course, this is something I'll probably only use a few times a year.
Sounds like money well spent even for the one use. In your situation it would have been worth it to me to pay twice that if I could have had them to start with. I sure hope you got the thing running OK.
