Default Beast II rear shaft issue

I haven't seen anyone else with this problem and it's driving me apesh*t.
If I fully compress the rear axle/shocks, the drive shaft separates. I've tried trimming multiple axles to different lengths with no luck. Making the female end longer causes it to bind and even if it binds just a little, it still pulls apart.
Am I the only one this is happening to? If so, maybe I did the assembly wrong....but I can't find out where.

Mine does this too. IDK if you would be able to get it to pop while driving though.

Pops out constantly on rocky terrain.

I have the same issue with my rear shaft as well. Any time you actually put torque on it, the thing would pop apart.

After some measurements and a bit of research it seems that the shaft size is somewhat common in the 1/14 semi trucks.

I found this shaft, its the perfect size off the shelf and best of all the design will literally not let it pop apart.
