Axle Install

[RyAn007]

So I have done this many times, had problems where it will not fully go in, but never this, When I have the new axle fully installed it moves pretty freely in and out of the transmission, but when every single thing is reinstalled it slides out a little bit spilling some tranny fluid, I go under and i can slide the cup away from the transmission a little, about 1/4", this is 1g fwd drivers side and a Talon. Car is still on a jack stand if that matters, maybe moving the fluid to the back of the tranny where the axle is, I am not sure.

Was the circlip still on the end of the axle shaft when you inserted it? It is a small metal ring that locks the axle into the trans. I would pull the axle and check that it is still there.

yeah, it was still on there, could it not have seated? if thats not the problem what could be?

It could have popped out inside the transmission...
