You don't need c-clips...

The c clips in a FWD strut car don't hold in the axles like they do in a RWD differential such as a Chryco 8.25 or other c-clip axles.

They are only there to hold the axles in when you take the hub off from the ball joint. The turbododge cars don't even have them from the factory and the CV preload holds them in just fine!

The reason they are there is so that when you take the hub off the baljoint the axle doesn't come out and make a tranny fluid stain on the floor...

There is nowhere for them to go since the hub keeps preload on it as long as it is attached to the balljoint. If the balljoint isn't connected then you have bigger problems!
