Default vibrations!!!!! help!!

whats up i gotta 90 hatch, just did a b series swap.. the only thing i changed were the spindles from a 90 si crx, i put the lower sway bar from a si, and i put tanabe coilovers with 92-95 wishbones so they would fit.. but heres the problem...when im driving it just thumps like crazy to the point where i dont even want to drive the car, when i make right turns it gets worse.. ive checked all my ball joints etc. to make sure they were all tight which they are...i know its not the wishbones or struts cause ive done this before and had no problem.. only thing i am thinking is the spindles.. but theres no play in them when the cars jacked up... also when i jack the car up and put it in first gear and let the clutch out turn the wheel to the right the left wheel hops up and down as if its going to fly off.. but what i dont understand if everything is tight what could it be??? i dont have money to bring it to a alignment shop .. anyone have this problem or had this problem let me know please thanks.

The axles are the half shafts... But, make sure you got the right tranny. I have a J1 and the 90 integra axles work fine. But, I know that some of the center shafts are different lengths. Also, some integras had ABS, you dont want them axles. Some places like Raxles and The Driveshaftshop, sells axles made for B-series swaps in EF's. I would try this, the axles seems like the more likely cause of you symtoms.

From where i am from we call the "intermediate shaft" the half shaft lol.. but i have a 91 teg tranny, with 90 teg axles, which are the same?... but the "intermediate shaft" did come off a jdm b16 that was in a crx. if that matters

I am not sure if the center shaft matters... what is the code for the tranny J1? S1? YS1??? Need more info... but I know that the stock B-series axles are too long... without modification... which is reason for binding, but sometimes you get lucky.
