i had my car lowered four weeks ago. i am driving responsibly. but i was leaving work one day turning onto the main street in front of work, and my right front axel popped out of the transmission.(this is two weeks after i'm lowered). well this is the second time in a year that the axel has popped out. so i took it to the garage to get it fixed. the guy said he put the new axels in and brand new torque mounts for the tranny, but when he drove it to test it out. the left axel popped out on him. my question is this: does lowering the car have anything to do with this. also could it be the axel housings inside the tranny? (guess thats what they are called). help i haven't had my car for two weeks, and i am going insane! HELP ME 6GC!!!

::UPDATE ON THE CELICA::

Got her back, and the problem was this: When i first got the car, the CV axels were snapped. so when they replaced them they used the axels that the books showed. which were a fraction too short. so a year later they snapped out....then got them replaced with the same numbered axels. a year later....snap!. now leads up to present day. they called the manufacturer of the axels. (don't know which brand) and their was a misprint in the number. so they got the correct axels now. which should solve all my problems. so now i have the correct lenght axels. wOOt!
