I'm almost finished with my 4 to 5 lug swap but I had a question, I've seen people say you can use either the Prelude 5 lug 97-01 or the Accord V6 98-02 rear hub assemblies. The problem is on honda-tech there are people claiming that the Prelude hubs are thicker so they don't seat properly on the 94-97 EX spindle. So my question is, what are the differences between the Prelude 5 lug and the V6 Accord 5 lug? Can I use either?

You want the '97-'01 rear hubs and the spindle nuts from the same car. I don't know where you've seen '98-'02 Accord hubs as being a viable option.My Members' Ride Thread - It's a marathon build, not a sprint. But keep me honest on the update frequency!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/311392475906...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT have the same spindle diameter as a 94-97 and according to some people on honda-tech they fit better then Prelude hubs on factory Accord spindles

I really don't like information like this. There have been five generations of cars sold here in the US as Mazda Proteges. I gave the range of vehicles you could find the requisite nut from.
Also, the BB6 Prelude nut works. The issue is that the amount of threads showing from the spindle shaft are not that many. As long as you have a nut that will catch all of the threads, you're fine. The issue with the stock CB nut is that it uses a separate washer below the nut. The height of that washer takes up valuable threads that cannot be grabbed. The Prelude nut is a flanged nut that has threads all the way down. So you get the wider surface area of the washer while retaining all of the threads.
The nut is significantly taller than the threads, so it does stick out a bit, but not much. The image below shows the nut snugged into placed and not torqued. It will be a pain to stake it, but it can be done. There's still a good turn and a half left on those threads.

Yes. Go through the Suspension page of the DIY section and find a few of the guides there to read up on for clarification.Last edited by Jarrett; 09-06-2015, 05:06 PM.My Members' Ride Thread - It's a marathon build, not a sprint. But keep me honest on the update frequency!
