OK i hate making new topics about something b4 but people usually dont like to read so much...anyways long story shorts dohc jdm zc with 88 l3 1020427 tranny, got the 91 si hubs and 91 integra axles...ok driver side now...it LOOKS and FEELS like its not in all the way...when i put the nut on that connects the axle to the hub all the way the axle in the tranny is not in all the way...when i connect the axle in the tranny all the way theres not enough room the you to screw on the nut...right now its between half and half...now i already asked honda-tech a million times if i got the right parts and what not...now my question is, DO I REALLY HAVE THE RIGHT PART LOL and also maybe im not puttin it in all the way or whatever?? did anyone else have this problem please need info asap...thanks

 

i had the same problem switch them around and you should be ok

 

switch them around like? switch driver to pass??

also would i be able to drive it around with it being half half right now?? i mean i drove it up and down my block..was shakin alittle, i think because the springs are bad

 

you might of switched them around like put the pass on the drive side and so forth did the same mistake myself call whoever you got them from and ask them to check to see what one is which

 

i did it myself, order 1 by 1...got pass first, put that on.. then just finish putting the driver side on today

 

bbuummppp

i had the same problem when i was doing my friends EK. We couldnt figure it out until i got mad and hit the axle with a hammer......and it worked!!!! Try to bang it in because you never know..

 

well just keep on hittin it?? i mean like i said when one side goes in all the way the other side gets shorter(im horrible in english) ??? and there both on the right side...driver is on driver and pass is on pass

 

I thought you were supposed to use 88-89 Integra axles with a ZC? I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. Not too familiar with ZC's.

 

Is the tranny your using a ZC trans? Does it have an intermediate shaft with two equal length axels? Or are you using a stock trans from a DX/Si? Try pulling the axel out, and use a screwdriver to make the C clip on the end that goes into the axels alittle bigger. That is what locks the axel into the differential. Make the clip larger in diameter and get that axel seated all the way. - Darrell
