Re: [DML] angle drive ring clip

["Rustproof" <Rustproof@xxxx>]

Where exactly does the "ring clip" go? I removed my original drive and there
was no clip on that assembly. My new unit with updated cable bracket came
with a small spring-steel circular retaining clip. The workshop manual
mentions it but does not elaborate on its installation. Can anyone clarify
this?
Thanks,
