OKay so i had to change the axles that came with my b16 swap which were jdm crx axles and got rid of one them becuase it got destroyed.
So i bought 90-93 integra axles put them on and its shaking like crazy like my dash board is about to jump off. I've read on a couple of solutions online like it could be my wheel bearings, or the axles is too long but i wanted to ask my members that have a wagon if you guys can help me out asap because i need my car and i cant drive it=( please help me

    did u use the JDM b16 half shaft? i think i remember hearing that u have to use the teggy half shaft. or u might have gotten crappy axles right out of the box kinda rare but it does happen.

    Well the axles werent new i bought them used and yes im using the b16a halfshaft. But the passnger axle was too long so i just left the old one in there. And i think if the axle goes inside my halfshaft doesnt that mean its fine to use. Idk if its that i have a good integra axle on the right and a messed up jdm crx axle on the left could that cause the shaking?

    hhmm iono i think beetween all the used misc matched parts somethings wrong. I would try to live with it till u can get yourself a teggy half shaft and axles tons of people have done it with way and it works. one other thing might be cheap motor mounts not putting the motor in just the right spot.... too far back too far forward..... infact my wagon has hasport mounts integra half shaft and integra axles works just fine.

    They've tried to give me seized axles at advance on three separate occasions. The first two times I said "these don't feel right" and they said they were fine, so I put them on. Both times they felt GREAT for about 10 miles then went to shit and started shaking and whatnot. So be careful! Most of the axles that you buy "new" at those kinds of cheap parts stores still use some used parts to rebuild them. They sell them as "new" just cause they have new joints.

    There is one brand, EMPI, that sells axles for around the same price as the expensive ones at advance, and they use ALL new parts. Of all the Honda mechanics I know at my local dealership they all say either use Honda axles or EMPI. I don't know why driveshaftshop doesn't sell a just slightly better than stock d-series axle made of all new parts for like $150 a piece. I'd be all over that.

    Well i have hasport as well. And about the halfshaft i have a integra one but never thought i would need it unless my halfshaft had play in it because i thought that all bseries would be the same. I was thinking about you saying the motor not being in the right spot.. Could it be from my car being slammed in the front? Im planning on lifting it up to see if it helps. And i dont think i have advance auto parts axles i think their oem. I just need this problem fixed already.

    When I had my xsi swap in my hf I used the stock b16 half shaft. Came to find out all half shafts for b series are the same. Always got 90 91 integra axles. Sometime they will give you 92-93 abs axles. While I don't think it's much diff they price is. Also the axles should be the same length on both side hence the half shaft. I always got 3 at a time and kept one in the car incase I blew one out racing. Funny side note for you sohc bitches out there. If you can find a zc that hasn't been molested some come with a half shaft that will allow you to run the two shorter axles instead of one long and one short. When in doubt about axles get the ones from the car the swap came from unless you put a newer motor into a older car.

    I remember that zc half shaft trick the full race pink hatch had this done to it. If i ever do a FWD D build i will for sure do this.
    I dont know what else to tell ya but get new un-used teggy axles and see what happens...
