Default axles keep going out???

After installing a new full face clutch into my 94 integra my axles went out i though it was because i hit a big bump but now im leaning toward it being something else because i got new axles from auto zone and two weeks later they are bad i can go under the car and grab the head of the axle that clicks into the tranny and onto the intermediate shaft and wobble it almost like they arent clicked into the diff but they are

im out of ideas please any fedback would be great

what part of the axle is broken, is it a cv joint, or is it the teeth on the end.

well after looking around my engine bay today i think i may have found out what's wrong the passenger side mount that has the 3 bolts that thread into the tranny only have 1 on the other two were missing and the mount was cocked to the side a lil
i hope this is whats causing the axles to go out

Most likely you have already caused damage to the inner collar. It is now become kind of ovalized and will cause the axle to work it's way out. I have the same issue, passenger axle keeps popping out. I'll be getting an LSD soon to fix the problem.

mount now has all 3 bolts and i will be getting new axles so hopefully they wont go out anymore i dont see how the diff could be messed up from that because in my case the axles are staying locked into the diff. I think the uneven balance due to the lack of bolts was tilting the tranny back and there for causing the axles to spin uneven and making them ware out
any other fedback would be great

It sounds like you need an LSD to fix the problem or a new differential. You might think not but the clearences are vital on these cars. Hope that helps

Yeah those are the synchros that grind from mishifts. They're like 185.00. If you do get a new tranny don't throw away the one you have because that can be fixed easy. What kind of tranny is it anyways
