Default b18 intermediate shaft and axles compatability

k so this is my current project. swapping a b18b1 from a 94 teg into my 91 Si hb. (removal of donor motor is in progress lol)



The bad thing is it has an auto tranny bolted to it now, which i will not be using. Im curious as to whether or not i can use the axles and or the intermediate shaft from the auto tranny on the manual (90-93) A1 tranny that i'll be getting?

and if i do need a diff intermediate shaft do i use the one from the manual transmission that would of came on the car had it been a manual, or can i use one from a b18a1? I know the DA axles will work but i was just curious if the auto axles on it now could be of any use to me.

Ok so i did some digging and determined that the intermediate shafts in the Auto and manual transmission are different. i know i need to get a 90-93 Manual intermediate shaft for my cable A1 trans.

Now i'm still left with the question about the axles. I checked advance auto parts website and compared the parts numbers. it appears the 90-93 axles are identical to the 94-01 axles. There are abs and Non-abs axles available i noticed. I believe the axles in my donor teg are ABS because its an LS as far as i know, not RS. That being the case im prety sure i read somewhere some guy who said the ABS axles work just the same as the non abs models, is this the case?

90-93 passenger side axles are the same as 94+

on the drivers side the 90-93 intermediate shaft is female, so both ends of the axle are male

on the drivers side the 94+ intermediate shaft is male, making the axle female on the intermediate side.

I've heard conflicting things about the ABS axles working. I believe that they do, but I'm sure someone else can give a more definitive answer.

sound bad but get ebay, they have mount and axle set for like 2 or 3 hundred and they work great.
My friends been running them for 2 yrs now no probs.
