hey everyone
this weekend i replaced my half axles. got new ones from oreillys. well when i was driving yesterday, i heard something fly out of the engine bay, and i lost all my transmission fluid. turns out my axle popped out on the passenger side. why is it that the axle wont stay in place in the transmission? could i be missing a clip? please send me anything you can that may help me diagnose this. im completely stumped. i would put pics up, but no camera. thanks all |

you mat have not put the snap ring on right, or at all. the axle may not have been put on right. it takes A LOT of force to get those halfshafts in correctly.

It just takes one good push from the other side of the axle, usually these rebuilt axles come with everything new / replaced such as the snap ring and a new axle nut. I'm guessing you didn't push it in hard enough. |
