Default What axles do I need for my swap?

I have done some looking around and could even call a few places but let me ask this question in case someone knows a good setup or a good place to buy them.

What I have:
1990 CRX si
B18C5 (Hydro LSD)

I need to know what axles are best to use. I have a set of axles (good condition) that came with the swap. They were in a '94 del sol. I have no need for them unless it is to use as a core or even as parts to make the set I need. Or I could even sell them. Either way I need some axles that work.

I don't know about that.... I maybe wrong when you take into consideration the axles will not be perfectly straight when installed, but I laid the axles on the ground end to end and it measured a little over 57" (to the beginning of the spline - not the overall length). I then measured the same locations on the car and it was 55". Since this did not include the extra distance the tranny would add to the total length of the axles, I thought there was no way it would ever work. I will double check my measurements in the morning.

Did you measure from inside the tranny, where the axle goes into it? I'd say at least 2" of the splined end goes into the tranny. Like the other guy said, as long as you have the matching intermediate shaft, those axles will work in you car.
