Removing pins from output yokes?

[hugo]

What's the best way to remove these pins? Anyone have a tip on removal of these things?:loser:

If it is the part I am thinking of, it just unscrews. It is called a grub pin/screw. Half is threaded, the other half is smooth.

IT's not a screw, it's just a pin that goes thru the output yokes.

I think its a 4 way universal.
Its like a +

I just slip a flathead next to it and turn it until the plastic part spreads out a bit. Let loose of the flathead and make sure the pin is out of the plastic hole and move to the next on. Do this on all 4 of them and it should come off.

Not following that FastEddy. It is a four way universal. With the pins being +. They look like they're in there pretty tight.

Pins don't come out. The pieces pop apart. Is this where you are talking about? http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXDDS8&P=X

Thanks for the link!
The pins do not come off individually, they are all one unit + like shown in the link and must be removed as one unit like I described above.

ohh yes i remember those when i had my nitro sport ...as eddy said just some carefull presure with the right sized regular screwdriver will pop them out, ..it gets easyier with practice

 

[beason]

yea the chrome little balls with 4 arms.. be carefull with those and try to pry on the black part, the white part (if there is one mine had it) is more brittle.

Cool. Thanks boys. Fasteddy, now I gotch ya!

Okay, I see what you are talking about. I was referring to the incorrect part. Sorry 'bout that.

Curious. Why do you need to remove these?

Probably replacing a drive shaft. T-maxxes break those quite often.
