Funny you should bring that up.  Back in the mid-90s
when I first got these sets, I had a monster of a time
trying to get the dynamotors back in.  It looks like 
it should be easy, but the dynos have an eccentric
center-of-gravity of the circumference, so when you
think you have the pins aligned and try to seat it,
the blasted motor rotates on you.
They are tough to get seated.  

When I took this set out of mothballs 
I knew I'd need to check the dyno lubrication and 
cringed when I attempted to put the heavy beast 
back in.  It popped into place on the very first try.
I couldn't do that again in a hundred years. ;-)
