Ok.....Take and put one side of the pin in. Then take a flat head screwdriver and put it on the other pin and push in while it is on the edge of the table........AND DONT STAB YOURSELF!!!!!!!!

Put on of the pins of the metal joint into the yoke. Take the silver tool that Traxxas gives you and put the slot around the other tab on the metal joint. Pry up on the output yoke slightly as you are pushing on the tool, until you have the pin of the metal joint into the output yoke hole. Its hard the first few times but you get used to it.

I just drilled a couple holes into the edge of my work bench. One hole to accept the metal shafts of one of the yokes and a hole to hold just the yoke parts. In the small hole I slipped the metal part of the yoke in then positioned the metal joint into the bottom hole and took a flat screwdriver that I had ground a slot in to fit over the opposite metal pin and then carefully pushed in the top pin and it snapped right into place. The larger hole I used to hold the parts that don't have shafts. I hope this makes sense.
