Default B16a/crx Axle problem..Help!

Messing w/ my car today and found my driver side wheel would'nt spin.Cecked everything out, seperated hub/axle to make sure the axle will turn on its own...and it does.Turns out when the spindle nut?(fat nut that holds the hub to the axles) is tightened neither the hub or the axle will move(in any direction)When nut is lose everything will spin.
I'm thinking I have the wrong axle on the car (too long),but im not sure.If anyone can share some ideas with me i'd really appreciate it.
My passenger side axle turned out to be the wrong,Thats whats leading me to think the same w/ the driver side
Thanks
Dan

Make sure that the metal ring spacer on the inside of the hub has been pryed out. Also that the black spacer on the end of the axle has been pryed off too.
