That looks like the clips that hold the pivot pins on a Huck brake system. Push on the fat side of the clip so that the skinny side moves out away from the pin. Use a flat head screwdriver to bend up the skinny part of the ring (the clip). With the skinny part bent up, you can easily push the clip off the pin.

Hope that makes sense!

Usually. The clips are made of very malleable metal but after several removals and reinstalls they crack and break. So be gentle. If it breaks private message me with the dimensions as I may have one I could send you.

Thank you for your help guys. I got it off now without damaging the clip. Maybe I can reuse it after I clean the parts. I will definitely reach out to you if it breaks on me during the install.Thanks again.
