Attach the dogbones (107) to the plastic universal yokes (106) by
lining up the slot on the dogbone (107) with the groove in the univer-
sal yoke (106). Secure the two pieces with a
4-40 x 3/8" cap-head screw (17).
Tip: A small amount of thread-lock compound should be used on
the threads of the 4-40 x 3/8" screws to help keep them tight.

Step 2. Position the universal pivot (108) in the rear axle (109) so that
the holes in both are aligned.
Step 3. Using pliers, carefully push a 3/32" x 1/2" spirol pin (110)
through the rear axle (109) and universal pivot (108) until the pin (110)
extends evenly from both sides of the rear axle (109).
Tip: The pin can be made to press in tighter. This will ensure that it
stays firmly in place. To do so, SLIGHTLY crimp the center of the
pin with heavy duty wire cutters. When inserting the pin, be careful
not to smash the ends of the pin, or the universal may not operate
freely.

Step 4. Using the small end of the assembly wrench (111) supplied
with your kit, pry the pins on the universal pivot (108) into the holes
in the plastic universal yoke (106).
Tip: The dogbones should rotate freely. If they do not, the ears of
the universal yoke can be squeezed slightly with a pair of pliers.
Squeezing the ears will press the outside of the hole in the ears
against the pin in the universal pivot. This will cause the hole to
enlarge slightly, helping the dogbone to rotate freely.
