The folding cylinder has a leak on the piston end and I have the clevis and the nut off and do not see a snap ring or notches for a spanner wrench. How does the rod end cap come off? What am I not seeing?

Some require driving the end in and placing a nylon halt ring in the inner groove to keep them inner snap ring from locking into the groove, this special half ring comes with the kit

Driving on the rod end cap is an understatement but I finally got it out. I had been carefully driving on it for an hour when I made this post as it would not move at ALL. I go back out and it decides to grudgingly cooperate so now it is down to finding the necessary O Rings. I still think that I have a solenoid issue and will try to move one from the barrel side to get through. This has been the year from heck for me and we are not even half done.
