Default Driver side axle problem help!!!!!

ok here the deal, my buddys 94 LS teg, for some reason keeps blowing the drivers side axle inner joint. it doesnt matter what brand we put in there it keeps going bad. and the other side is perfectly fine. the only thing i can think of is could it be the rear motor mount?? if its bad? i dont get why it would keep blowing only the driver side. let me know what you guys think

then it gets a really bad vibration under acceleration what would cause the inner joint to keep going bad

if the car is really low.. could it be possible that the streets that the car is driven on have plenty of bumps where the inner joint could scrape?

Like S1NFUL RL1 619 said, it could be due to your ride height. On my civic coupe the cv joints blew soon after I slammed my car but i dont know if that was the actual cause. But on your car its the inner joints so maybe it scrapes on bumps and dips?
