Default Hurricane upper arm / ball question

Ok, I had a high speed head on run in with my friends Revo and I took a bit of damage. (at least I tore his big 'ol tire off the rim... made me feel better)

-Ordering up the steering link/tie rod set (the end that attaches to the steering hub ball snapped)

-Sheered off the screw that goes from the upper arm to the steering hub (no biggie, a little screw removal job on the hub)

-Broke the upper arm ball ** here is the part I'm having a hard time with, the exploded view doesn't part number balls and screws. The [link=http://www.redcatracing.com/parts_searchresult.asp?basepartno=HURRICANE+PRO&q=81207]Universal Joint Balls[/link] look like the right ones, but it says 3 pieces? I only see 2 of that type on my buggy, the left and right upper arm balls.**

- How in the heck do you remove and replace the balls in the first place?
