crx b18a halfshaft question????

Post by zrs6v4 »

wow I thought my derigging crx job was finally over.. but I guess not.

89 crx with 92 b18a LS motor and tranny

I was looking over my motor and noticed that now my passenger side halfshaft inner boot was leaking. I thought no big deal Ill buy a new halfshaft for $50 and swap it out again.. well I remembered he said something about an 89 integra halfshaft or something..

here is the issue the tranny is from a 92 integra and the hubs/rotors/ and possibly calipers are from an 89 1.6 integra. why he did this I have no Idea but when he origionally put the car together he built halfshafts that were half from and 89 and the inner half were from a 92(to fit the tranny.. well when I replaced the drivers side halfshaft I put one on from an 89 integra b/c thats what I thought he did at first... well I still didnt freak out and was hoping that for some reason the parts were the same, so I went to autozone.com and the part numbers for halfshafts from the 89 vs 92 were different numbers.. so now I am kind of lost on what to do. I just replaced the driver's side like 2 months ago and its new but if its the wrong one I am obviously going to replace it...

do I buy 2 new 92 halfshafts and hope they fit in the 89 hubs or what?

or do I need to buy 2 new hubs as well if so which ones? 92 integra?

thanks

I called hasport and he told me to use 90-93 integra axles...

Does that sound right?
