RE: how do you remove and replace the piviot ball in the axle carrier
If the ball popped out, check around the hole it came from, ofen times its cracked. Also, I suggest a new carrier as that ball will pop out easier next time. Scroll to page 35 (adjusting the pivot ball caps) and you'll see the tool used for adjusting the pivot ball cap. Use that tool to remove the cap...drop your pivot ball in, then properly tighten the cap. Stick your allen wrench through the dust boot and into the pivot ball and turn it into your control arm. http://www.traxxas.com/products/nitr...evo_manual.pdf

First of all what vehicle do you have? That's the correct way if you have a revo. Let us know if you have something else and I'll try and help you out.
Nevermind I read your other post. That's the correct way to do it.
