Default Correct Axle Lengths?
Possibly a short axle in the long tube side of the rear end housing? Could be catching just enough in the carrier to keep it centered but not far enough in to adequately engage in the splines. Might have been just barely engaged before and it's moved just enough or worn to become disengaged.

How about an axle slipping out slightly on its axle bearing and allowing the splines to become disengaged?
