Default Attaching output yoke to driveshaft? (Nitro Rustler)

I had to pick up another pair of steel output yokes for my nitro rustler because one of the set screws didn't screw in far enough to hold onto the shaft (for the lack of the correct term ). How do I put these in? I already tried bending the plastic drive shaft but once I bent it out far enough it just got real loose and didn't hold it well. Is there a way to remove that pin through the yoke or something? Any special way of doing this?

Thanks for all your help!

if yours is anyting like my old stampede, those pins that your talking about dont come out.
i tried on mine and just ended up ruining one side.

if you got metal yokes, and the pin doesnt come out of the ball part, i dont know how to get it in since the fit on them is so damn tight.
when i put mine back on the stampede, i could bend the plastic on the yoke to fit over the pin thing. the metal is prolly gonna be damaged if you bend it right?

Yes, if I bend the metal rod it will definetly ruin it. I'll check again to see if it slides out. Last time when I tried bending the plastic drive shaft I didn't bend back over the yoke... thats why I don't want to do it again to the only extra I got left. LOL, actually I've been using my electric rustler as spare parts.
