You may have pulled the inner half of the CV joint apart with the boot still holding it all together. See if you can twist the axle while holding the inner part of the axle shaft where it enters the trans to realign it with the other half. I accidentally pulled my drivers side axle apart when trying to remove it for engine removal, boot and outer axle half come out leaving the inner hub sticking out of trans. I carefully realigned it and pushed it back in and forced the boot back into proper alignment. Careful not to get any dirt into the CV joint and make sure the boot is fully seated.
