ok guys i need some help here. i had a shop install an eaton detroit truetrac in my 99. they set it up but i installed it myself. i had a problem with the drivers axle walking out of the diff about an inch and a half. they told me to try new circlips and the ones i ordered off the part number they gave me were the wrong ones. they said they cant get them but i took my car in and they expanded my old clip and said its fine. well the axle walked out again and they are saying its because the car is lowered. eaton wants then to put the small axle block that came with the diff in but the shop says it wont fit that the axles wont clip in at all. any ideas.
