92 accord <95' h23a swap...axles????
i have a 95 h23a engine and trans in my 92 accord lx....
i converted the car from auto to manual...
in the process i removed the factory automatic mount on the actual chassis of the car and welded in the 5 speed cb trans mount...
when we put in the engine in the studs for the upper trans mount did not line up with the holes on the 92-95 h23 motor mount i had purchased. BUT the holes matched up to these circles on the trans where it looked as if studs could go...so i drilled and tapped the holes and put the studs into them..VOILA! perfection....
NOW HERES MY PROBLEM
i bought MT 92-95 prelude axles for the swap and the right side went in fine but the left side(drivers) was about a half inch too long...so i took it back and bought a MT CB7 axle...that one was too short or something i forget all i know is it didnt fit either. but anyway when all kinds of money was spent and all was said and done i ended up with
1-cb7 outer joint
1-integra gsr shaft
1-92-95 prelude inner joint
i dunno wtf we were thinking but we got desperate and the thing acutally fit pretty good and after pounding the sh*t out of my car during the test drive it seemed all good so we left it alone...now 9 months have gone by and the axle is starting to make noise and vibrate quite a bit and i want to replace it but i dont want to buy 3 driveshafts just to make one
BASICALLY I JUST NEED TO KNOW IF ANYONE HAS THIS SAME OR SIMILAR SWAP OR HAD THIS SAME DILEMMA.....AND ALSO WHICH AXLES THEY USED THANKS

4th gen accord with h series swap (h22 or h23, or any f series for that matter [other than s2k]) uses stock accord axles and int shaft, so ditch the gsr and lude shafts and get all cb7 ones
