If it popped out, chances are the block it came out of is cracked. Hard to see, but with a close inspection, you'll be able to find it.

You might not, just check it for cracks. The block is the part the ball came out of.Okay so I need a new "Block" what is a block?

Take the wheel off, unscrew that corresponding hex nut. unscrew the ball and insert back from the outside.
Hey gents, great description, but if memory serves me correctly, once it pops out, the block is likely cracked. Usually a hairline one, so you have to look very close. Better to replace that block so it doesn't happen again @cobalt172easy, just take off the wheel, unscrew the pivot ball cap (red cap with hex head), now unscrew the pivot ball out of the arm completely and insert it back through the hole you took the red cap out of and thread the pivot ball back into the arm( Make sure you remember to put back on the washer while threading back in the pivot ball). Then thread the red cap back in but don't tighten it fully snug you want the pivot ball to be able to move, so what I do is stick the car on top of the wheel you took off like a stand and thread the cap all the way in and turn the steering back and forth by hand if it feels tight back off the red cap a bit until the steering turns free. toss on the wheel torque the nut and bash on.
Even if no crack, it was stretched. Likely to keep popping. Time for an $8 part.Hey gents, great description, but if memory serves me correctly, once it pops out, the block is likely cracked.

I don't understand why I need to shim the transmission of this car just to have it work.
Every rc even a premium rc kit you will have to diff your diffs if needed you have to take in consideration the QC of the diff cup,diff gearbox,bearings,internal gears,gasket ect for the shimming. Thats why shimming is important those parts are made with tolerances and trying to get the exact tolerances everytime is almost impossible. Its something you need to learn day one before working on diffs a lot of people learn the hardway when their brand new diff fails... an expensive mistakeI don't understand why I need to shim the transmission of this car just to have it work.
