h22 ek suspension
ok b4 i start i already searched this topic and all people talk about is what springs they used.
well i have a h22a in my ek and i'm currently using accord and integra axles. my question is, is it still safe to lower it even though i'm using basic axles? if so how low is safe?

IMO, don't go under 1.5" drop unless you have custom axles. there is no definite answer here though, just people's individual experiences.

those axles dont hold up when binding. they break really easy in my experience. just get some custom ones and you can drop your car.

What motor mount kit are you running? a cheap mount kit will also cause a lot of axle problems.

I've got that issue with my DSS axles too. I think that a big drop + LSD is a recipie for disaster no matter what axles you are using.
