Default 2012 leveling kit help please (cv slipped )

OK I will try to make this short. I installed an autospring 2.5 leveling on my buddies 12 f150 xlt ecoboost. I will say it'd a down right b&#$# getting the strut back in with the spacer on. Well in my attempt the get the passenger one bacK on the cv shift axle slipped partially out of the front diff. It only came out about an inch and went a little ****eyed but didn't fall out. I slipped the shaft back in and lightly tapped on it with a hammer. It seems like it went back in and seems snug and locked but now we are a little worried.

My question is, is it possible I got lucky and it popped back in or am I screwed? If I am screwed what do I need to do to right the situation?

Thanks for any advice. I'm doing my truck this weekend and I'm guessing a spring compressor will make this a lot easier.

If there are no fluid leaks from the front differential no worries.
