Icon6 Drive shaft shop axles leve 2.9 Helppppppp

I have a 2005 RSX type-s and i recently changed my stock axles to the drive shaft axles 2.9. My first impresion is that the drive shaft axles seems to be slight longer than the stock ones.

On turning left and right with the car i know hear an owfull sound, like methal is rubbing on each other.

I heard that when the axles are new you get this sound.

Does anywhone have experience with this matter???

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Andrew

Did you verify you have the right part numbers? I don't see why the DSS axles would be different lengths.

First, there is no need for aftermarket axles on an rsx. Second, as mentioned above check the heatshields
