Ugh!
 
My driveshaft keeps popping off , its the plastic on that goes onto the transmission. tryed drilling a hole in the stub thing but its like hardened steel and it took me 10 min and i barely started the whole..any ideas?

Get some steel yoks and some locktite. That should solve the problem.

yea. got a question. is there a safer way to put ball joints in the yoke then bending the yoke back with pliers? i broke them .

what i did is got one side set in place and then pushed it downwards on the floor, it pops almost atw and then just use pliers to get it in the last little bit.
pliers are only good for the last little part of getting them in.

I always put mine in some boiling water,, then they get soft
and fine before I put them on.....

to get them to stay on get the updated output shafts and diff gears, It's like 9 bucks. you are talking about the pede tranny right?

You need a new drill bit. Tamiya's steel is pretty soft. I can drill through one in 45 seconds, and I use a 9.6V Makita with a 1989 battery.
