Default Spiderbox Rear Axle lateral play

Hey guys, recently I've been out riding and my chain popped, I didn't know how it happened. Then the other day I was hearing a knocking sound in the back went to take a look and couldn't find anything. Well, once I got back to the garage after further inspection I was able to notice when I push the back of the buggy side to side the break rotor would shift about 1/4". So I figured that's what made my chain pop, and looking at the bearings it looks like they are sliding on the axle. Is there any way to fix this? Maybe a couple of split locking collars just behind the bearings to keep things from shifting?
