Default 2005 ford f150 axle help !!
i have a 2005 ford f150 xlt 4.6L the front passenger side axle wont stay in the differential .. my whole truck it put together but if you crawl under the front end you can literally pull the axle in and out about a inch then the CV Axle stops it from coming out any further ! ive looked all over google and cant find any thing please help is their a C clip or somthing that im missing ? that holds and locks the axle into the diff?

There is a nut that goes on the end of your cv shaft, located under the center cap on your hub
