car revs but its like the axles are stuck. Wheels wont move at all. its a b18c1 with a gsr hydro tranny. Im using a 94 integra intermediate and 94 integra gsr axles.

Help someone please.

 

Has it ever moved? Did you remove the dust rings?

 

no i didnt remove the dust rings? Would that cause my car not to move?

DEF

 

I always remove them. And I've never been curious enough to see what happens if you don't remove them. So I can only speculate that that would be your problem.

 

k ill try that tomorrow if anyone else has any ideas let me know. the axles would sping freely before i put the car down so maybe that is it. I spun them around a few times before i put them in the spindles this is weird.

I suspect that the 94 teg axles are too long and are binding. I had both of my dust seals in on my hatch(89' b18b, 90-93 axles-I shaft) w/ no problems. I have removed them since replacing the axles and there has been no difference.

What are these dust sheilds? I havent heard much of them. I have a 89 CRX Si with DA Front Knuckles also Im running 97 GSR AXLES and INTERMEDIAT Shaft with a hydro gsr tranny. I have yet to put my axles in.

Just want to see what these shields are so I can remove them.. SO I dont encounter this same problem if thats what it is.

 

I'm running 94+ axles in my CRX and have no binding problems. I have a cable GSR tranny and the only problem is with the axle seal on the tranny.

 

The knuckle ring is the item in question.

What problems are you having w/ the axle seal?

 

so i guess im removing dust ring tomorrow and seeing if the car will move then. It moves its just doesnt want to move very easily.

Yep, It feels like trying to go from a dead stop in 2nd gear w/ the E-brake up . In other words, it doesn't want to go anywhere!

i had the same problem w. my wheels not spinning.....and it turns out i left the dust ring in mine...took them out and they spun freely, so take them out and you should be good to go

 

you just made my night. Im feeling more confident now how hard is it to remove? I have to take the dust shield off right so I'll just remove the whole spindle/knuckle thing tomorrow night and have it running on friday...i hate working till 6 because its dark when i get home but atlest i have friday off.

DEF

 

they are super easy to remove. just get a flat head and pry it out. takes 2 seconds.

 

they are very easy to get out,

hope that fixes the issue

 

i hope that fixes the issue to i was looking at another spindle tonight and i can see how it could cause the problem. I'm praying this is my issue. Let everyone know tomorrow after i get done if its not dark when i get home

DEF

 

Yeah, I too have had to remove the rings everytime when I use to do EF swaps.

 

I wonder why mine didn't bind?

 

because you have different axles. and a different intermediate shaft im guessing...richie didnt have the problem with the 90-93 axles either...but my car using 94 axles.

DEF

 

Yep, Maybe. Remember when I borrowed one of your alxes and said it was too long? That 1 inch may be the difference. I wonder what the difference in the I-shafts is?(length wise)

 

i dont know. Weird huh. I know there is a site somewhere that someoen linked to one time...I cant find the link about the axles and intermediate shafts anymore.

DEF

 

If it still binds a little with the ring removed, next is to remove the dust shield on the tip of the axle.

PS, my site has pics in the b16 how too

 

woops, I guess I dont have a pic on there... its the rubber outside of the axle(the surface that comes in contact with the knuckle ring) You may or may not have to remove this...I did with my 90-91 axles.

 

well im at work and its raining...if it doesnt stop i might not be able to do this today? Has anyone else forgot to remove them dust rings and had that problem?
