Default Steel bearing retainer keeps coming apart

I'm just wondering if anyone besides me has had a problem with the steel sleeve coming out of the aluminum base of the steel bearing retainer? This is the second one I have put in and both of them came apart. 1st one was after 12k, and the 2nd after 4K miles.
-It was lubed
-It's not stuck to the tob
I got them both from http://www.sacramento-mustang.com/ and they said they haven't had this problem before. I just find it hard to believe that I'm doing something so terribly wrong that it pulls it apart each time.
Just curious. One thing's for sure...I've gotten real good at taking this stupid transmission out.
Thanks
