I need some help!

I am trying to order a new set of axles from the dealer for my 92 Civic with B18C conversion. I just need to order some ITR axles. However, I am having great difficulty trying to find a valid part number that Honda/Acura actually carries and/or sells. When you just look up the part number for say....a 97 ITR, Honda/Acura do not carry that part #, and cancel the order!!!

I need a valid part number, someone pleaseeeeee help

And please don't recommend autozone or whoever crap rebuilds, they really are crap and can be blown apart in only one or two track sessions. Lifetime warranty doesn't help me win championships as I run to get a replacement for a broken joint.

There must be some others out there who only use new axles???!??!?!?

 

raxles. they are great. not rebuilds, all new parts. and pretty inexpensive too compared to when i was shopping around. They quoted me $115/ea for my 94 civic, i'm sure the b18c isn't too much more.

I may have too. Although, importing them adds a significant expense(I live in Canada), and I was hoping to go with new OEM axles (I do work at an Acura dealer, and get parts at cost, which means a SIGNIFICANT savings... )

 

could you order the axles for a usdm 99-00 Si with the B16a? or are those axles not the same as the DC2R?

I come up with: 44305-S04-J10 and 44306-S04-J10. Will have to check on those part numbers tomorrow. I know the S03 axles were listed at over $1000 each (eek) but were not available anyways....we will see on the S04's.

 

i'm coming up for the 99-00 Si (or SiR for canada):

44010-S04-J01 DRIVESHAFT SET, R. $249.78
06443-ST7-506RM DRIVESHAFT SET,R.(RMD) $134.93

44011-S04-J01 DRIVESHAFT SET, L. $249.78
06444-ST7-506RM DRIVESHAFT SET, L. (RMD) $134.93

in my opinion, with the prices of the 'new' oem ones ($249/ea on wholesale/internet pricing), even with taxes and duty the 'raxles' couldn't possibly be much more. Email raxles, they are very helpful and can more specifically answer questions about duty and tax. They've answered all my questions, i just gotta find time to buy; too busy working.

i'm getting this acura part numbers for the DC2R:
44305-S03-950 INTEGRA R. DRVSHFTASY

44306-S03-950 INTEGRA L. DRVSHFTASY

you already have the intermediate shaft assembly?

 

If you are going to import, try driveshaft shop, they'll make you whatever you want in whatever strength you want. There customer service is second to none in my opinion and they make tough tough half shafts.

Look at links in first post here.

 

If you are going to spend the money on OEM's, why not just spend the same money for better axles, like DSS stage 1's?

Or get their road race axles and be done with it.

I got the same numbers as chrisw85 for new OEM's. I'd have to dig up the R/M book for R/M'd numbers.

 

i came up with a 44010-ST7-R51 for a 97 r on both sides

for a 98 r i got a 44010-ST7-J72 for both sides

and finally for a 00-01 r i got 44306- S03-950 for the left and
a 44305-S03-950 for the right

hope this helps a little

There is a wrong part number interchange for the 97 R. The left and right part numbers should not be the same, and Honda is in the process of fixing the error. That is besides the point because Honda Canada told me that even though it is a valid part number, they will not fill the order ??!?!?!??!?!?!? They actually told me to order some jobber axles (if you can believe it)

I am hoping I don't have to buy the S03's as they are over $1000 list each. In that case I would just order a set of Raxles.

I have actually ordered every part number listed for every year of ITR. Apparently Honda just does not want to sell me new axles

 

Wow. With the all the aftermarket high hp axles floating around for a fairly decent price, why would you want OEM axles that cost an arm and a leg?

Aftermarket are stronger, brand new, and cheaper.

Good luck!

 

NAPA <U>new</U> (not reman) axles have lasted 4 days so far on my turbo ITR... over 250 ft-lbs torque.. *shrug* Another couple days coming this weekend!

97 ITR shows up to me as:
44010-ST7-R50 Right
44010-ST7-R50 Left

2001 ITR shows:
44305-S03-950 Right
44306-S03-950 Left

are 97 and 2001 different?

Yea, but you don't understand, that's the exact part numbers I get when I look them up also. What more do you want? If your Acura is wrong then try looking them up at a different Acura. If anyone should have the inside scoup it should be you since you work there.

According to Baranco's page they are available for $285

maybe old news to you but are you in need of the jdm 98+ itr axles? if so you may have a hard time getting them since they are not available here in the US to my knowledge. As you may well know they differ in size and spline count from all US spec itr/gsr as well as pre 98 japan spec axles.
