So now we have "The Axle Master" and "Mr. Motormount." Anyone else with a nickname?

Ok ok, no asking for a nickname. One must be assigned. For example, Misa is always preaching about his motormounts, thus "Mr. Motormount." He can also be called "Intake Bend-Eliminator" and "Exhaust Yeilder." Brian goes through axles like hot cakes. I think he can install them blind folded, thus "Axles Master."

So I guess I'm "Bullshitter" then huh?

Some more minor details:
There's a 17 mm nut and bolt to be removed for the shock fork.
You have to unstake the axle nut first, and 9 times out of 10 it's going to be really, really, really, really, really, really, really hard to break loose.

If they don't break. I broke a 24" long 1/2" breaker bar on an axle nut last weekend (with the help of a pipe to extend the length). Then just for the hell of it I broke my 1/2" ratchet as well. Thank goodness for the Craftsmang lifetime warranty.

PS the breaker bar wasn't Craftsman, but when I replaced the ratchet I got a Craftsman breaker bar, and with Misa's help got that ***** off.

Just get Accord axles.
I'm 99% sure the 4 and 5G Accords and 4G Preludes use the exact same axles, except the driver's side Prelude axle has a female end on the intermediate shaft side. Pretty much every Accord hybrid uses Accord axles.
To reiterate, just get Accord axles.

yeah I think your lug nuts were torqued more than the axle nut. Seriously I wonder how much torque your weight jumping on the end of a 1 foot torque wrench will put out. Probably alot more than 150lbs/ft.
