Bottom ball joint snap ring

Well the dumb a** that put my ball joints in, left one of the bottom snap rings off. I can't seem to find one at any of the places available to me locally.
Does any one no the exact size and where I can find one.
I guess the dumb a** will have to hire it done next time. Thanks so much. Jim

Might give partsguyed a call, he can at least get the sizing from the ford charts at a minimum i would guess.

Thanks Ziggie. I ordered one today, that I hope will work. I found my old Ujoint, and best I could measure, it is about 1 7/8" ID for a 2" shaft.
I am really not too awfully worried about it coming out. Just wanted to do it right.
That's my payback for doing it wrong.
Thanks for the offer. If I need it I will PM you. Jim
