Default Fully Seating the Axels?

How do I get 'em to fully seat? I still have a bit of a gap, and they seem to not want to go ALL the way in.

You gotta just keep trying.

Did they "click" into place?

Okay, two questions:
1. Are these OEM axles or aftermarket? Sometimes I found that Pep Boy's OEM replacement axles are a tiny bit different in length after the little C-clip. No matter how hard I tried to bang them in, they didn't click in. I had to go back a few times to get the right one.
2. You sure they clicked, right? They require you to pry them out again to remove? Or do they just slide out? Do they pop out when you drive or make noises?

If you are sure they clicked in, even if there is a small gap, it should be fine. Just make sure it doesn't make any odd noises when you're driving or fluid doesn't leak.

Well im in the process of getting my engine put all back together . These are OEM axels, the origionals. Transferring from VX to jdm d15b engine, but the tranny is still the VX tranny.
