Default axle clunking/popping out passenger side/ aftermarket mounts and LSD

I have a 1992 Civic Hatchback..i just put a new motor in there and everytime i make a right turn there is a loud clunk and the car hops...sounds like its coming from the right axle...my setup is
Ls Block - Gsr Tranny....as far as my motor mounts my driver side one is a Innovative..my tranny one is a place racing...and the rear one is the haasport one...i also have a Obx LSD in my tranny.... the axle i was using was an oem axle...i changed that out to a autozone reman axle...and it gave me the same problem....the last time i drove it...i made a quick right...and the axle clunked but sounded a little worst this time...and wen i was driving on the straight road after that. the car drove as if it was hopping..i got home..i put a flathead screwdriver between the axle and gently pushed back...the axle came out about 4 inches...
any ideas?

also the car drives fine wen i drive straight and shifts smooth

my guess is the lsd. its the only thing i can see that could do that. i have the obx too but no problems with mine. does the axle show any irregular wear on the tranny side when you pulled it?

Thats strange, I have had a similar issue but not that bad.

Is the car slammed?

Is it possible that the differential doesn't have the grooves that the axle retention clip snaps into??

Just a thought.
