I was able to finish the repair by myself. taking off the c-clip was the hardest part. I got it slightly loose and it spun when i tried to put more pressure, even with my fingertip on. I got the c-clip off, but it was covered in grease so it didn't fly out. Damaged the outside parts of the bushing in the main shaft slightly because of how long it took to remove the c-clip but doesn't seem to affect my retrieve. Thank you all for the tips given. I now have my scorpion dc back in commission. ??

Made my decision. Bought the new JDM Bantam. A little bit more than the initial budget but i'm sure this will be a worthwhile investment.
