Default b16 axle problem

ok i have a 93 eg with a b16. I have been using 94 teg axles which i should be using. The driver side seems to be like an inch too short and even when i put a new one (reman) in the cv joints click. Its like the joints are stretched and when im on it in a turn it blows them. Are the 99-00 civic SI axles have the same spin and possible any longer?. I blew 3 in a little under 2 months with and im running all stock motor. Also is there a slightly long halfshaft that i could use. Any suggestions would be helpful.

sounds like you might have the wrong intermediate shaft

im thinking its just pepboy axles that are screwing me up. Now that I think of it the oem del sol axle i had lasted forever until i dropped the clutch on the line :-P. Since then I have been going threw axles like crazy more so the last 2 months. I'm thinking about getting raxle axles but $320ish for axles that still might be too short would really **** me off.

take it back and get a new 1, the last autozone axle I had lasted like 3 days, when the used original oem ones that came with my swap lasted 40k of hard driving, and 1 of them is still going
