Couple of things. You cannot mix up the gears as the inner return rotors are wider that the pump side.

I highly recommend ordering 2 or more of the outside lock rings. They are very tedious to install. Do-able but tedious.

Agreed. My gasket set came with two of them and I just installed it tonight. I have just about every kind of snap ring pliers under the sun but nothing I had worked for that little thing. Had to just kinda hold one side with my fingernail and push the other side on with a small screwdriver. What a pita.
