axle or differentail issue
while I was under the car doing a differential fluid change, I noticed that the axle had backed it self out of the differential. So I took the axle out and took tout that axle shaft. I cleaned it up and freed up that locking ring. I put everything back but the shaft doesn't seem to stay locked in place, with a little wiggling I can pull it back out. I put back everything back and started the car and put it first gear and watched at the axle was rotating and after a while I could see that the axle shaft started separating again from the differential. What could be the problem here?
UPDATE: it looks like that locking ring was a little chewed up and so I removed it. Maybe if I install new one, that might help?
Also when I'm titghening the axle nut, the axle seems to get pulled towards the wheel and kinda gets stretched. Also how would I install the new locking clip without stretching it too much? thanks
