i didnt get much answer in the integra forum so im posting it here.

im doing the axle swap because its seems that the boot i got replaced is leaking again and when i brake, the driver side wheel area vibrates. rotors have been checked and so has the brake pads.

from the thread https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=382416 on how to replace an axle, is it the same directions as doing it to the driver side? also, is there any extra parts/tools i need to do the job?

thanks

 

You will not need to drain the tranny for the driver side. Otherwise it should be the same.

 

shouldn't have to drain it for passenger side either. JMHO.

 

new cotter pin needed? any other parts? can i get away with not torqueing down the bolts to factory specs until i can get a hold of a torque wrench?

 

my suggestion is get Napa axles cause they have a lifetime warranty, i've gone trough 6 of them. If you have any questions about the install IM me.

 

Sounds more like a bad hub. Might be something to consider.

 

might also be a warped rotor.

 

just checked the hub, its fine, rotor fine also. why do i always get the abnormal symptoms!

 

Is your rims curbed?Did you hit a curb?Might want to also check your suspension.
oh yeah go to stargate 2000 win2k i'll give you some headshots on cs lol

 

Oh yeah almost forgot,does the vibration happens when your driving or braking?
It's always easier to diagnois the problem.

the vibration/shaking is happening during braking but i did find some grease splattered all over the back of the calipers and around the area. its kind yellowish creamish and i know this is from the cv boot since i got that raplaced before. i didnt bent or curbed a rim, in fact i switched my back rims to the front and the vubration is still present, it is less but still present.

oh yeah, im an easy target for headshots in CS, im running under 56K right now, major lagg spikes and CL_FLushentity Detected stuff and net_graph is "0" according to my console

 

if it only happens when you brake its most likely that your rotors are warped, theyre only 25 dollars, i'd give that a shot if the axle doesnt fix the problem.

 

yeah but im leaning more into the axle because of the grease all over the place.

 

Okay,so you checked the rotor and its fine.and the ball joint is fine?also if you have abs you might want to check the rear,and remember to change the pads too that might help.but like you said it also mght be te axle make sure its the last thing you do.good luck
