Default Re: axel keeps coming out!!! help please!!! it might be my frame!! (thekid_12)

It comes out from the tranny side? There is a ring that goes around the shaft. I think it is a locking ring. Not for sure but is that ring there? only thing i can think of. How do you know its the frame? Did you get hit from that side, and after that you had that problem. Not sure how it can come out so easy. Everytime i pull my axel it is a BIG pain.

Could you please take a moment to tell us more about this, about your experience with this?

In my case, my DC2 ITR track car will pop at axle at the transmission. We seem to have decided it has to do with the nose of the car being lower than the axle length was designed for, so it puts pressure on the clip.

But...what do I know.

It sounded like (to me) that the new axles (with new circlips) are coming out of the intermediate shaft housing. He said that he can pull them out easily by hand, new clips and all. If the shaft is stationary and he can remove the axles with very little effort, I figure there's something wrong with the shaft.

Then again, when I posted, I hadn't seen the other post about him destroying the front end of the car.

To the OP, how hammered is your suspension? Can you post up pics at all?
