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

ok so after 3 axles, i figured something must be wrong w/my car, even tho previously this never happened. after getting in contact with AIT, the manufacturer or the axles oreillys had, it turns out that every axle i've been getting is 1/2 inch too short, which explains the bearing breaking every single time. just figured i might let you guys know in case you go to oreillys for axles.
