something is exerting outward force on the axle, or the splines in the trans are worn. Check your ball joints and tie rod ends for play. If it's common that the 4th gear shift causes it, then that gear stack might be misaligned or worn as well, and could be popping it out.

possibly the "c" clip is no longer on the tranny side of the axle...make sure thats there, it helps the axle stay put.
