Have they been changed lately? could be the wrong ones in there,or you need to get the gearbox out and have a mod done to stop it happening.
Once the circlip housing is worn it's useless.

no same shafts is it a common prob circlip housing and can it be fixed thanks

 

[sideways danny]

fairly common. Usually happens with excessive wheelspin in my experience, but I also think incorrect shafts being used can cause it. once it's gone you need to either get aonther box, or have the groove remachined as tony said above. they're a bit like pringles, once the pop they dont stop

Don't understand what you are trying to say??

People send their gearboxes to him,and seeming we do not know your location,how would we know it's too far.
