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.My Members' Ride Thread - It's a marathon build, not a sprint. But keep me honest on the update frequency!

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.

Originally posted by woody7193 View Postjust 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
