Default Internal axle seperation, how do I get it back in?

My friend and I were in the middl eof a B16 swap. on the drivers side next on the half shaft, we were installing the new Axle. Well, when we realized that we'd put the axle on the half shaft without fitting it between the damper fork, we began to pull it back out, so it wouldn't slide out (we did use grease) and in the process of pulling it out, the tri bearings inside the axle boot seperated. We've done some extensive seraching but cannot find the solution to our problem. So, is it possible to get those SOB's back in? Or what, if som how exactly? My ownly solutino would be to twist and turn the bastard until it locks back into place, but I've never actually had this problem come up, therefore I'm at a loss.

I'd appriceate some help with this matter...thanks!

had the same problem.

I didn't need to remove the boot to get it back in. But it did take ages of working to get it back together.

Just removing the boot to fix the problem is really the easiest solution.
