Thank you.
The accord has a bigger cv spline (36mm axle nut), and I have integra hubs in the rear.

As soon as I get a bit of free time and money, I'll have ALL the rear suspension together and installed, minus the coilovers. Idk what I'm going with as yet. It may not seem like it but the car is slowly coming together. I'll post pics when there is a solid update worth posting about.

I actually just bought more wire yesterday to do more welding and what not. It's here when you need it though.
Broken ankle from running off the trail a few weeks back, that I saw Julian post about on fb?

Not really, it's on the back burner but not forgotten. Got other things going on at the moment. However I am piecing things together to do the rear cantilever shock set up.

This is killin me!!! What is going on with the Beast?? I know a project like this takes a bit of time. I started gathering parts for my AWD project almost a year ago. Got the trans in the car with the linkage set up and the rear trailing arms almost complete. I'll start working on mounting the rear diff and drive shaft soon. I love what you are doing with this thing. Keep on keepin on. One day...

Thanks, I do not work on the car much anymore. I don't really have the time or money that is needed to finish this project anytime soon. I spend most of my time with my son and work, he turned 1 in Dec. of 2014, gladly he looks more like his mother than me :p
Anyways, I do work on it every once in a while, I haven't forgotten about it and it will be done one day! The rear end is about ready to be back on the ground, the cantilever suspension in the rear is complete. I'll focus on the front suspension and brakes next. Then the engine bay, body, and paint.... After the car is a car again and driving as FWD, I'll do the wheel alignment and all that will be left is the rear axles and drive shaft once i mount the diff.

Well, keep fighting the good fight! While I'm here, did you replace any of the bearings in the CRV rear diff while you had it apart? Looks like Honda didn't make these things very serviceable and there's about 5 bearings that could be replaced. Nothing in the manual about replacing them and no parts are listed on Honda's catalogue. Just wondering if you knew where to find new bearings for it.

I replaced the two bearings on the diff. The other 3 I left alone. I got the diff bearings local from a place that sells things like that, called Bob Dean supply. koyo bearings 6207zzc3
