Red face C/V joint question--

I noticed that the cv axle on one side --while jacked up and running with 1st gear in--is shifting back and forth. What I'm saying is that the axle part itself is moving from the transmission flange to the transaxle flange in a pulsing fashion. the other side is smooth and still.
I had taken the joints off that side to clean an reassemble sometime ago. Might I have installed them incorrectly? Is there some marks to go by that insures I have installed them right?
I had a major problem with that side 2 weeks ago when the outer cv joints decided to back out far enough to shear the threads--except for one--and then swing the axle in a fashion so as to snap some of the aluminum off the Transaxle!! That's all replaced now--and I'm
anxious to exorcise the culprit.

All your help is appreciated much....S
