Number 6 is the snap ring that keeps the packing (#5) in place. The packing is held between number 6 and the cap (number 4). Items 7,8, and 9 are the piston. You can't get them out without removing item 6.
That said, I have no idea how to remove the snap ring.
I'm focused on getting the packing (#5) out. It seems like I just need to pick it apart.
