How to install u-joints

This procedure is used to install the metal u-joints
into the plastic output yokes on all Traxxas models.

Step 1 - Insert one of the pins of the u-joint into one of the yoke holes as far as it will go.

 

Step 2 - Slide the slotted end of the u-joint installation tool between the u-joint ball and the other side of the yoke (the u-joint pin should fit into the slot of the u-joint tool).

 

Step 3 - Press the pin inward until it pops into the hole of the yoke.
