they're all the same, you get axles for the motor not the brakes.......

you must be thinking about ef's, where you have to upgrade to fit the larger diameter axle maybe?

If you are dropping in a D series, you use the axles corresponding to the D series. You don't have to change the knuckles for your swap. If everything is bolted up, then you have no problem. Just double check that you have front camber kits while everything is apart.

i'm assuming since since you have ls knuckles, then you have ls rotors, hub assembly, and wheel bearing....and im not sure a d series axle will fit in that wheel bearing...i could be wrong though....anybody?

yes you're wrong.... d series is 32 mm and so is b series...92-00 civic/delsol=94-01 Integra

88-91 4spd civics have smaller

98-01 Jdm Itr=36mm

yeah that was my question exactly.. wasnt sure if it was going to fit in the wheel bearing. so if you put a d16 into a 94 integra you just use the d series axles and your set? thanks for clearing it up.
