So a long story short I keep breaking my driver side CV axle.. I have replaced the drivers CV axle with a oem one from the local parts store. I put it in and I can drive straight but as soon as I turn either in 2 or 4wd it pops out and breaks on the diff side.. So im not sure what the deal is.. I have put 4 CV axles in so far and everyone pf them pop out and break when I try and turn.. I'm running 2" drop spindles in the front and hd keys.. I also have brought it up to factory height by cranking the keys and then put a new axle in and still no change. Does the same thing pops out right when I turn..Anyone else have this issue???

Are the axles flat or are they at an angle?

I ended up finding my problem.. Top front diff mount was broke and diff was pushed all the way to the right side causing the driver cv axle to pop out..
