hey everyone
so a few months back i replaced my passenger side axle due to the cv boots ripped and the joint was clicking. Since then I have been through 4 axles due to the bearing busting and then the axle pops out of the transmission. What could be causing this? If you have any ideas of things I can check please let me know. At this point I know it is not installation because there is really only one way to do this, and nothing went wrong during installation. Also, is it possible that by lowering the car anything shifted? A friend is trying to convince me that 1 year after lowering the car that this is causing the problem. Thank you all in advance |

Suspension height definitely shouldn't affect the axles. They are CV axles for a reason, they are made to constantly operate at a wide variety of angles. You should be able to have that car slammed to the ground and still have no problems.
