im assuming your talking about the u joint (were it bends) and theres 2 pins that cross i believe you bend the ears out slightly on the drive shaft and then put one side in then the other. then squeeze them back together. at least thats how friend with a ax10 does it.hope it helps?

If that's it, the Traxxas trucks come with a little "pry bar" that makes it easy. I don't have one but use traxxas yolks on my scx10. I use my plastic cutters to "pry" the little ears up and then pop in the metal pins... it's a pain! |

I have boiled the traxxas shafts to get them to soften up for me to shove the pin part in there, it works better for me cause before I was killing those flaps yanking on them with pliers

nini revo axles directly replace the mini summit axles and last wayyyy longer. I bought steel summit axles and broke them before the stock revo axles even whimpered
