There is no grubscrew to hold the pins in so it appears they are in place purely by friction.

As a quick fix after some head scratching from the lads at club we pushed the pins back into place, put some super glue over them then covered the whole assembly in some wide heat shrink and that held out ok. Other than putting the head of the driveshaft in a vice and squeezing it home I can’t think of much else I can do?

I’ve added some pics to try and explain what we did… (I pinched the images from the KMC review, hope you don’t mind Jimmy…)
Cant say i've had that problem, it may have been manufactured on a Monday or Friday perhaps
