    Default Need help with Axle.

    im currently changing the axle on my 92 prelude si. Got the Broken one out already but i cant seem to pop the new one in. i can hear the "click" noise when i push it in but its not all the way in. or i think its not. i can still feel the space between the axle and the tranny. And it pulls right out again. i have twisted and pushed the **** in as hard as i can but wont seem to go in right. i have measured it and its the same as the stock one.

    adj the lil lock ring at the end of the axle on the tranny side. if its not going in all the way. pull the ring off close it a lil bit. put the ring back on an try it again. if i pops in and doesnt pull back out your good. if it pops in an can pull back out u made the rings to small. just got to go back and open it up some.
