I've removed that assembly completely when I installed the front pumpkin with gears from a Montero Sport. Less things to worry about breaking

BTW where do you get these schematic diagrams?

Taking out the valve train so I can replace valve stem seals and lap/clean the valves. Made this tool so I can compress the spring and remove the retainers.
