OK - the ring has to come off - it's likely welded itself to the relay and
is holding it in place. The relay has also likely welded ITself in place -
whis is a not-good thing.
Lots of PB Blaster and try to get it to move either up or down. On ones
I've had to do this to it's taken a lot of time, lots of jacking and lots
of patience to get it to move.
The relay you have is original to the '60 truck - the two oiling points are
correct. the other one is early to mid 60s, before they eliminated the
cross-drilled shaft with the oil fill, but did eliminate the vent hole (the
other bolt).
Have you thought of rebuilding the relay in situ to avoid having to extract
it from the chassis? If it's just leaky but still works right, the seals
can be replaced easily with the relay in the chassis by removing the end
plates - it' won't come apart.
