Stockish (ZC) motor and suspension. ‘89 Si hatch.

So I lost a knuckle dust ring (44348-SH3-000) after I did wheel bearings, balljoints, hubs, axles and more. I’ve looked for it for several days. It’s the one metal piece that goes between the cv axle and knuckle. None on rockauto or eBay (unless I buy an entire spindle assembly $80+) and of course they’re discontinued by Honda.

I ordered one from Honda for an EG and it’s too big diameter-wise. Was hoping it would’ve fit haha... Closest junkyard is about 75ish miles away and not sure if they would still have an EF laying around... so not exactly sure bout that as an option. I’d rather buy a spindle than do that tbh. Any ideas where I can find one?

Has anyone ran without the dust shield? I wanna get this back together already - so many unexpected setbacks thus far.

 

Fine without them.
Most aftermarket (cheap) axles don't even fit with them on and you have to remove em anyway.

 

Thanks for the quick reply, I’ll go without it then. Seems to be a pretty small gap anyways.
