i did a h22a swap including tranny and cv joints..heres my problem:
i had cv joints rebuilt....im using the h22a half shaft and cv joints....im using the accord brake rotors and everything that comes with it.

the engine jerks left and right on every wheel spin.......i was told by shop that rebuilt the prelude cv joints that they are too long for the wheel base. now i have read for three full months about this swap and all the instructions tell me that i have to use the prelude cv joint and the will fit fine on the accord wheel base as long as im using the h22a tranny with the half shaft...but it doesnt seem thats right.. i need someone to help me asap because this needs to be done before friday i have to work lol please someone help!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

prelude axles are too long
supposed to use accord ones when the h22a is in an accord

 

yep , what he said

 

how about the cv joints...what cv joints do i use? that was my main question...i know that the prelude axles are bigger and the cv joints as well....but the half shaft on the prelude transmission has a male end and the accord driver side cv joint has a male end as well so it doesnt fit. and if i use the prelude cv joint on the accord axle and prelude half shaft and transmission.....the distance from the rotor wheel bearing and the transmission shaft is too short making the engine jerk left and right evey time the wheel turns

I think you answered your own question...

ps...even without vtec i notice a huge difference between f22 and the h22..i scretch tires even in 3rd gear!
