Default is this axle bad?

hey is this axle bad? It pulled apart at the CV joint when I was trying to get it out of my transmission. I cut the boot off to see what was wrong and it looks like it came apart. I shoved it back together (pain in the as5 lining it all up) and reinstalled it in the car.

car ran fine, everything seems normal. but do i need a new axle? I'd rather be on the safe side.



thanks

If it runs fine still get a new boot and throw a load of new grease in there, theres atleast a few hundred more miles left on that

Axle is fine if you drove it. However replace the boot and regrease it before you throw it back on.
