Icon6 Trying to slam my 88 crx!!! HELP!

I have a 88 crx with a B16a1 obd0 motor swap. The tranny is a S1. I currently have 91 integra axles, the same axles on a del sol and civic si. When the front of my car is lowere very far the car makes a very bad vibration when accelerating. This vibration is worse when the wheel is turned. turned more + torque on the motor= horrible vibration at a low ride hieght. The wheels and tires DO NOT RUB. I have taken the tires off and rested the front of the car on jack stands and the vibration still occurs. PLEASE help with my issue. Car looks really gay with the front higher than the back.

X1918374923 billion. Slammed cars ride like **** anyways. Raise it up some and see if that goes away. Then go from there. You may just be pissing in the wind. Your axles may be binding because they are so far off from the designed angle to be run at. Worth a shot

Or they may be pushing the axle too far in and bottoming the inner hub so it has no room to pivot.

Your crank pulley is hitting your radius rod,the rod connected to the front cross member and lower control arm.fix by either lowering your crossmember with washers or an aftermarket pulley setup
