Default 90 Si w/LSVTEC shakes real bad under load.

The Tie rods look fine but the car shakes like crazy under a load. I was thinking the axles might be wore out and in the case of prior experience a possable diff bearing. Anyone had this problem and fixed it??

The alignment is good. Could the axle cause the shake?

Iv gotton vibration like that when my intermediate shaft was going out But it could have been the axles because i changed them all out at once and the vibration was gone Do your axles chunk around corners?

No the car doesnt have a camber kit on it.

Any idea what part of the axle was bad?

Well I am coming to the conclusion that the trans has a bad diff bearing and the intermediate has a bad carrier bearing.

I also noticed that with the suspension hanging, as I rotate the drivers side tire the suspension moves up and down because of the carrier bearing.

Can someone link me to the no BS axle info on a 2G CRX with a B-swap?

Thanks for the replies guys.

i had the same prob also. i was using 90-93 integ(hasport said they would work) axles on my b16 w/s1 tranny. My one friend told me about the 89 teg axles for his setup so I put in a 89 teg axle on the drivers side and shaking went away when i punched the gas. Hopefully thats you prob too
