Here is a guide to help you remove the wheel cylinder and a diagram below. Sometimes the wheel cylinder can get stuck you need to tap it with a hammer to break the rust loose.
I need to know how to install the ring clip in the wheel cylinder is their a special tool? I am replacing them with brand new wheel cylinders. Just need to know how to install them they have a ring clip.

Yes, you drive it into place so you could use a hammer if needed.
