Hey guys, im in the process of putting in my CV joints and there seems to be an issue where while I’m tightening the CV - HUB nut, it is pulling the stub axle on the diff out. I can see on the passenger side it is slightly out which I thought is normal. However on the drivers side it’s pulled out a lot further than the passenger side. I have the longer CV on the drivers side and shorter one on the passenger side.  Does anyone have any suggestions for what I can do? 
cheers

Is the suspension at full droop? Try pushing up the lower arm with a jack. Careful not to lift the car off the chassis stands

yeah the suspension is at full droop. Okay I will try lifting up the lower and arm putting it in like that. If that was not to work, do you think that the issue might be with the stub axle circlip? As I was literally just able to pull out the stub axle with my hand and not a lot of force.
