Axles with h22 swap

[woody7193]

Does it matter what axles i get for my swap? Or does it have to be accord ones? My car is making a bad vibration on the right side when i turn

['93CB7Ex]

accord is the only ones that fit.

[woody7193]

Really ? Dang it thanks for the help

I put prelude axles on

you can use prelude axles

Not correctly. You'll be able to assemble everything as long as you have both the Prelude driver side axle and intermediate shaft but it will eventually fail. The Accord driver side axle is 23.5" and the Prelude axle just under 22.75". That added distance the Prelude axle is trying to stretch will strain it. The passenger side is independent of the driver side altogether but it's an even bigger difference. The passenger Accord is 26.625" and the Prelude is 24.75".

There is no conceivable reason to use the Prelude axles. If you have a manual transmission Accord reuse your axles and get back on the road. If you're swapping from an automatic in the middle of your manual transmission H22A swap then go buy new axles and intermediate shaft for the Accord.

just swapped them out with accord axles feels way better, as I was taking out the prelude axles transmission fluid drained out and when I tested my car out it moved halfway around the corner and then my car wouldn't go on the last corner , so my guess is that the transmission needs fluid

Use the stock axles and stock accord intermediate shaft.

It has been common knowledge that the Accord axles are to be used in an H22A swap for well over a decade now. It has been documented on this site for about that long as well, and I believe it has always been very easily found in a "sticky" thread.
It boggles my mind that someone could be a member of this site, perform the H22A swap, and not know this.

Yeah... you should have topped of the transmission fluid before you test drove the car...

I agree with Deev and this goes with the K'Series swap as-well, try to read guides or use the search engine to members mocking you and/or getting band.

I probably just read it wrong , but glad I have this site to help me out with all my mistakes, also figure out that the axle just came off the transmission thats why the car didnt move

Steve @ HMO said to use the accord axles used with the F

Any reason why axle keeps coming loose?

Youre not fully engaging it. It takes a little force. I use grease to keep the C-clip centered on the rod. Install and give it a good shove so you hear a pop like cracking your knuckle or something. then a little tug, if it doesnt come out youve succeded. if it does try again. if you cant get it, inspect things.
