I heard somewhere that the JDM b16 halfshaft is slightly longer than a usdm teg halfshaft and when I heard about it I heard that for the driver side axle you can use an 89 teg axle cause they are a bit shorter. Has anyone else heard about this or can confirm it. I know for a fact that the JDM one is longer cause when I put in 90-93 teg axles my car hopped around and **** on the driver side, I changed the halfshaft to a USDM teg and it was fine. TIA

 

Yeah the Y1 intermediate shaft is a bastard.

I"m using the jdm b16 intermediate shaft with no problems. Its been three years now with no problems. So can you guys explain what problem you are having.

 

There are 2 shafts for a gen 1 jdm B16a. A teg one, and a civic/crx one. They are different sizes, thats why you use the teg axles on the teg shafts, and the civic/crx axles on the civic/crx shafts. Ryan

 

You heard right, the y1 intermediate shaft needs an 86-89 teg axle. Perfect fit.
