X posted a good thread on the subject. But I will give you my short version, since it is pretty easy like X said. All you are really doing is bending the steel rod to shape. Mostly to get around the roll bar. Then you are not using the HPI "servo saver" type servo horn, instead you are going to use the spring on the rod, for the "brake give"! Look at this pic as well.

I'm actually using the HPI stock servo horn, but I have glued and screwed the two pieces together so they move as one. I'm going to upgrade to just a alloy servo horn and using the sliders in the ofna kit. Just like in the other thread.

Use what's in the kit. All you have to do is screw in the ball stud into the throttle arm. Then screw the nut on. Its not that hard. Yes the hole on the throttle arm is smaller then the screw on the ball stud, but that is ok, Man up, and screw it through. you will be fine.
I will attach a pic.
After reading your pic. If you are having problems with the ball cup going over the ball stud? Same answer, (Man up) Get it over with needle nose pliers. Yes there is a very tight fit between the ball cup and ball stud.
