            sounds cheap to me, considering half of that price will be shipping.

              I'm trying to figure out if you can use Prelude lower control arms (almost sure you can) but have heard they push your wheels further out. Is there a way to correct that to pull them back in a bit? Without running crazy negative camber? Thanks guys, reason is I've got a bent lca and figure now would be a good time to replace everything at once.

                Has anyone had axle issues with around 3 inches of drop? I wound up using both 5th gen axles for the driver and passenger side. My passenger side looked over extended and wore the inboard joint rather quickly. With the 5th gen passenger side axle it looks more secure and together. Also had the passenger side axle pull out going around a corner when i had a 4th gen in. Has anyone else experienced this with the All prelude way?

                        For the drivers side, I am only doing the 5th gen axles on both sides to see if it works, my 4th gen pulled out on me.

                          you could have just swapped the 4g prelude suspension and done the 5 lug conversion on them. check out preludepower.com for more info.

                            Thats what I'm doing in front, u prob still run into the same issues though cause the fronts have the same geometry on 4ths and 5ths

                            Pain in de azz too... costs more... u have to get new bearings. I went this route cause I unknowingly picked up an SH setup.

                              put a 4th gen axle back in the passenger side today and held the inboard joint as i tightened down the axle nut. I can feel the axle come out of the socket. I am putting the 5th gen back in after work. still have vibrations. The new intermediate shaft helped some. I am still unsure.

                                If you are doing the front then backs and u have ABS, I'm guessing there is a difference in the tooth count cause my car went into ABS at really low speeds w/o real slippage. I just unplugged the harness, hopefully when I do the front I will be OK. If not w/e I will have Ziexes and freakin 13" rotors in front.
