F series into EF hatch STD
I think I'm going to ditch my D16Y8 swap and go F23A1 as a complete engine no trans came up local to me for CHEAP. What axles do I need to run? I seen on here 91-93 accord axles work or H swap axles.
HUB. I know B axles won't fit into my STD civic hubs, what about the accord axles? If not what hubs do I need? Do i need to swap the entire spindle or can I just swap a new hub or wheel bearing if possible?

Apparently "Chrisfrom1986" deleted his comment or it was removed as I don't see it but it's in my email inbox.

Yeah I thought the forums were the place to ask questions but thanks for reminding me I'm not allowed to ask questions or seek help on an IDEA I had.
Admin we can delete this post now I'll just forget about it

Nobody is here to spoon feed you. Your questions alone show you've done no research. Everything you've asked can be found by searching Google.

There are two main options for getting an F23 in your EF based on transmission
A) direct swap with F23 and matched transmission: while this is probably the most cost effective it's maybe not the best. the ratios commonly available are not ideal for the intended use. as you have found already, options and or knowledge on axles and hubs to make it work may take some digging to get straight.
B) F2B/H2B- a b-series transmission can be adapted to the F23 so axles, shift linkage, hubs ect. could all be the same as a b-series swap which is well documented for this chassis. search "plateless H2B"
D) there is a third, unhinged option to use a D-series transmission. But I don't think kits are available anymore so it would require sourcing one used. The pros: axles, shift linkage half of the mounts and the hubs can all stay as they are. The cons: as stated- availability of the kit, cutting part of the block off to clear the left inner CV joint and clearance for the belts.
