Thats the spider gear cross shaft, open diff transmissions have these (non lsd). Your axle should pop back in sometimes they are a little tricky, have you tried tapping it in with a hammer?

make sure the pop ring on the tip of the axle is not all wobbly. it should pop in. try sliding it in and out going hard when you push it in

ive tried hitting it in with a hammer didn't do anything...so that shaft is supposed to slide out of the way? becuase it doesn't feel like it moves..

no it stays there. how far in does it go in?? if it goes more than half of the chrome shaft you need to make sure you kinda twist it in and you can use the same axle as a "slide hammer" to kinda pop it in..

THAR BLACK PIECE WILL NOT MOVE, IT IS SUPPOSED TO STAY THERE. ITS A FACT, FORGET ABOUT IT, THAT IS NOT YOUR PROBLEM!!!! Yes i was talking loudly. push the axle in as far as u can get it, use a scrap of wood and pound the axle in with a hammer using the wood as an insulator so the hammer does not damage the axle, twist and repeat till done!

if your talking about the stick in the middle of the spider gear, thats normal, but if the actual part that grabs the ridges of the axle is getting in the way, then the differential fell of its place. so its not good anymore.
