Am I stupid, or lazy? Vette Servo

Okay, so I bought a corvette servo while my car is down for the count atm, since it shouldnt hurt anything anyways right ... well, I dropped the trans a bit, got everything out, put everything back in... except the very last snap ring... I couldn't manage to grow that dang 3rd hand so I could squeeze the snap ring enough, push it in, and use the crowbar to pry on the servo housing.

Does anyone have any tricks to doing this by yourself? Or do I need to make a friend breakfast and woe him into holding my crowbar... huh, that didnt quite sound right....

I closed the ring untill the two ends met and pushed it in as much as possible on one side. After that, I used a large screwdriver and mallot and worked around the ring to get it the rest of teh way in.
