Make sure that there is a "C" clip on the end of the spline, this is what holds the shaft into the housing, it may be deformed or missing.

Good morning.

When you replaced the axle, was there a snap ring on the end of the shaft that went into the trans-axle? If that is missing or damaged, it will come out.
