Default Axel . . . .

so i pull out of my drive way or make a tight right turn with my 96 civic coupe and all i hear is TACK TACK TACK TACK . . . . im pretty sure its my passanger axel. is it common for the axel rattle as well? and one last thing, im planning on swapping a H22 on my car and i was wondering if i can just use the axel set up for the H22 while im still running my D16y7 ? be kind!

I think you would need a new axle or you'll be hearing it all day long when your driving and if you do a swap to a H22 you cannot use the stok civic axle, you would have to upgrade.

we lost another one to H series

an naa dude, u cant use ur brand new axle that your gonna have to go buy on ur H22 swap... but if u stuck with ur single cam and boosted it, youd be able to keep that brand new axle, and beat that H22 that u were gonna get...

Right side axles (passenger side) are prone to having problems on open diff cars. I bet if you jacked it up and inspected it you would find a torn boot. Buy one from a local car parts store and do it yourself in about 3 hours for a first timer

get use to bad axles if you plann on an h22. and if you change the axle yourself you will need a fork to get the ball joint out of the LCA.

how long until you plan on getting the h22?

if its just a matter of days you could just wait for ur h22 which will come with the other axles, but you really do not want to break your current axle
