Default Civic CV Shaft Woes

k, here goes, So I have an 89 Civic hatch, with a B16 SIR Vtec. Well I toasted a CV shaft the other day and decided to replace both at the same time, I used the Integra shafts as recommended and removed the dust caps. So here is my issue, I still have a major clunk and vibration in the front end, at any speed, really nasty when accelerating and turning left.

Any ideas?
Thanx

You took off the dust rings in the hub and the dust ring on the axle(s)..?? Also what intermeditat shaft do you have ?? If its the stock sir one then you need to get a 90-93 integra intermediate shaft to use the 90-93 driver side integra axle..Passenger side you can use just about any b-series axles..Also what mounts are you using ?? and hows the front end alignment..??

The axles you used are probably too long. Or at least one of them to cause binding while driving or turning.

What year integra did you use, and what intermediate shaft?
