Hey guys my axle popped out yesturday...just wondering what might have cause this to happen? I have a ctr swap in my 99 coupe its been in for about a month now. Just wondeing why it might have popped out. I checked the c ring and it was slighty fubar so i changed it out and put the axle back any ideas?

 

Dude...12 views and no input...is this like a freak anomolie?

 

The entire axle slided all the way out of the transmission!? Or did the joint pull apart?

 

You didn't have it seated good enough. Happened to us last season with stage 3 axles. It poped out after the burnout.

Took it back in the pits and drove it back in with a big hammer and a block of wood.

 

the axle came out of the tranny...i could see about half an inch of the splines sticking out from the tranny.

I had been driving on it for over a month wouldnt i have noticed by now? I am p "spirited" driver

 

Is any of your front suspension also loose?

 

no i checked all the suspension...everything looked to be in order and tightened down

 

What axles did you use with the swap?

 

you probably didnt have the axles set in right and as it spun it slowly slid out. does your engine vibrate alot? maybe your motor mounts are bad and it might have helped in the sliding out part. what kind of axles are you using??

 

OEM b series axles...came with the swap. Someone else said it could have been mounts. Doesnt the motor generally move back and forth not side to side?

 

when all the mounts are bad the motor goes everywhere. i had this problem come up before when i did a similar swap. you might want to set it in place first and recheck the seal. my on case the guy sold my guy a bad tranny

 

As in recheck the axle seal? what am i looking for leaks, damage?
