I have a 96 honda civic with a b18b"Ls swap) two days after i swapped i snapped my left axle. Two weeks later my right axle leaked out. I changed it asap. Few months down the road both axles leaked out. Yesterday I swapped out new axles cause one went bad. Today i was under the car check it out and its busted out again.. I didn't get on it or raped her at all.. have anyone heard of this problem?
It's lowered about 2.25" its not slammed

Using all integra parts

Wheels are balanced
Got an alignment
Mounts good

When you say "leaked out", I assume you mean the boots are torn? If so, you may want to either use better cv boots, or try a different store if you are using remanufactured axles..

 

is the half shaft boted to the block?...is there snap rings in the axles?

 

How long since alignment? Is everthing snug and tight? You check the bolt near the hub? Don't know what else to tell you...

 

What year integra axles are you using for this? For the '96-up civic chassis, you need to use the '88-'91 integra axles (they're a hair shorter than the newer model). Mine did this for a while too, kept having to replace boots. You're just binding a little, or maybe a lot in your case.

 

thanks i'll try it. Anyone else tried this? I jsut got an alignment two weeks ago
