Driveshaft problem

I installed my coils few months ago and while my frnd was helping me install them the driver side drive shaft came off from the axle? it took us some time to it back on but since then the driver side wheel is hanging out from the fender well about 1~1.5 inches. is it because we put the drive shaft in a wrong way that it's hanging out or is it from something else.... I'm suspecting its where the shaft connects to the car but just wanted to see if anybody had the same problem as me here on the forum. I need help!

I posted this on Repair and Maintenance section too... didn't know the proper section to post this....

i'm guessing you resolved the problem by now. lmao.
supposedly, you just pop it back in? you should feel the 'pop' of it going back in? i'm not totally sure. i just want to know just in case it happens to me in the future.

to prevent it, you support the hub with a jack or use a bungee cord to keep it from falling out after you remove the steering knuckle bolts... right?
