An axial retention ring has uninstalled and installed conditions. The axial retention ring outside of the recess is in the uninstalled condition and received in the recess in the installed condition. An anti-rotation feature, such as a ring, is arranged between the bosses in a locking condition to prevent rotation of the axial retention ring between the installed and uninstalled conditions.
