Default Axle keeps popping out of transmission

I have a 1994 Honda Civic EX coupe with a 2000 Ls tranny and the motor is a 98 Ls. The axle keeps popping out at the tranny. We just replaced the axle with one from Bap Geon for a 2000 Ls. Then we took it back and got another one because we thought it was defective but it does the same thing. It snaps in good when installing it. What is going on?

You're 100% positive the axle was completely in the tranny?

I bet if you can use a little camera, the groves that hold the snap-ring in on teh axle are messed up on the differential.

How do I know you ask? My ITR transmission with KAAZ diff kept doing this. I drove it home on a broken axle and had nothing but issues after that. I have the diff in my living room collecting dust because of it.
