Axle Replacement

I replaced my passenger side axle on my Integra GSR, and noticed a slight vibration under acceleration, especially before VTEC hits. Does changing the axles alter any alighnment??? Thanks guys.

Are you sure that it is all the way in? If its not it could cause the symtoms you are discribing.

Actually mine does the same thing and i just replaced an axle. My alignment is off badly though so im thinking that may be it. its trying to pull the wheels and making it vibrate.

Re: Axle Replacement (JDM_Ej)

If in installing the axle you let the inner joint pull to far out the tripod bearing could fall off and it will cause it to vibrate. Had it happen on a clutch replacement job on a crx.
