Sounds to me like you have pulled apart the axle before it seats, you need to get another axle, and don't pull on the ends at all when you install it.

is your trans bolted in all the way?? mounts and all? don't start tightening the axle nut until you have re-assembled the suspension completely, just let the axle rest in the trans and spindle. is your transmission a direct interchange? what trans is it?

well, I cross referenced the accord axles and the prelude axles.. and they dont interchange, not sure why but hollander says it won't work. it also says that the axles are different from 2.2 and 2.3, again I'm not sure why but they will not interchange. make sure you have the right axle for your chassis tho

The Accord could use a slightly shorter axle, so I would try out a Prelude axle in there. The only difference in any 4th gen Prelude axle would be if you went from a non-abs - to an abs equipped car, which will have the tone ring for the abs sensor.
