I am very sorry to hear about your predicament. This is why I check the parts first before I even take anything apart for this very reason, so I don't get stuck with out a car. You have a picture of the parts so we can have a visual? Where did you order your parts from? How many miles and what is the reason for changing the axles? The axles are not the same part number so there is a difference in the left and the right sides.

The left front had a clicking noise when turning, and then a vibration when accelerating near highway speeds...
The axle that I DID buy was a Cardone, from Azone...
I had a feeling when I saw it, because the one I bought had a Male Spline on the hub end, and a FEMALE on the tranny end....
SO I looked around at different shops, and even the foreign auto parts store, SAME THING, female/male
Cant find the right one anywhere, so I called Marty, and ended up getting one from raxles, should be here in a few days...
