axle keeps breaking..please help Options

[hockeyplyr24]

hey everyone

so a few months back i replaced my passenger side axle due to the cv boots ripped and the joint was clicking. Since then I have been through 4 axles due to the bearing busting and then the axle pops out of the transmission. What could be causing this? If you have any ideas of things I can check please let me know. At this point I know it is not installation because there is really only one way to do this, and nothing went wrong during installation.

Also, is it possible that by lowering the car anything shifted? A friend is trying to convince me that 1 year after lowering the car that this is causing the problem.

Thank you all in advance

Maybe u have 5th gen axles or thats what they've been giving u I've seen some threads like this on here having the same problems and found out they were givin 5th gen axles for the s53 which is shorter and will give u this problem.

Edit: I've had 1.8 drop all around for 4 years now and I've never had this problem.
