I have a 1999 ST204 that keeps breaking axles. They are the Axles from O'Reilly's and the inner joint keeps failing. it is usually in hard left hand turns. I'm guessing that they are too short but i'm not sure. Has anyone else had similar problems?

Their was a thread a couple of years ago about the same problem turned out oreilly auto was giving out 5th gen (90-93 Celicas) s53 trans axles as 6th gen (94-99 Celicas) s54 trans axles u "might" be having the same problems although I had a refurb pass front axle from oreilly on my old 6th gen celi and never had a problem (I installed it myself too). I believe the 5th gen celicas had a shorter (PF) axle length then the 6th gen and a member was having similar issues with his axles falling off he later found out that oreilly's was giving him 5th gen axles.
