Default HELP: RSX Type-S / CRV Right Passenger axle too short? (K-Swap)

Recently had to change out the axle on the right passenger side. but seems like nothing is working. So far i've tried 02-06 RSX Type-S (22 3/4) and 97-01 CRV (23 7/8). Bought these from O'Reilly btw.

Chassis:94 Integra
Motor: K24a2 w/ innovative mounts
Trans: RSX Type-S w/ RSX Intermediate shaft
Suspension: JDM 36mm 5x114

Original axle. looks like it was short to begin with? busted out of the inner housing.


This is with the CRV axle compressed, i didn't take a pic with the RSX but it was an inch shorter than the CRV. already and i'm noticing the inner boot is beginning to twist after a test run.


Talked to a couple folks, they all say rsx type-s. so either the folks @ o'reilly's keep giving me wrong axles or there's something i'm over looking. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas? anything i need to look into and check? bad mounts? bad half shaft? bad refurb axles? bad luck?

i know these SHOULD work: Right Side (No joint swap; pop in and go!)
Option #1 – One USDM 2006-2011 Honda Civic Si Passenger Side Axle
Option #2 – One USDM 1997-2001 Honda Prelude Base Driver Side Axle
Option #3 – One USDM 1997-2001 Honda CRV Driver Side Axle


thanks in advance.
