Re: CRX B series axle fitment?
90-91 is slighlty shorter from 92-93. Only prob. is you have to get them from Honda, and unfortunately they (A) are madd expensive, and (B) pretty much stopped carrying parts for cars that old unless specially ordered. The Autozone axles are all the same length for those years, only difference is abs and non-abs. Abs has the gear on the end. Order ones for non-abs and just pull the dust covers off the inside of your hubs and they fit like a glove. Half shafts should all be the same lengths.

Re: CRX B series axle fitment?
i am not understanding how they fit if they are diff lengths :1
wouldn't the track have to be wider too?? or are the knuckles diff??
it makes sense to me that something else would have to be diff for it to fit

a 3/8" is a HUGE difference when it comes to susp geometry, a 3/8" longer axle would have to push the knuckle out unless there is a diff hub for that certain year/model/axle

Re: CRX B series axle fitment?
i knwo what he is trying to do, i've done it before
i was saying it doesnt make any sense that the axles would be diff in a DA chassis when everything else is the same.
hypothetical:
if on a 91 teg the axle is "standard" length, but on a 92 its 3/8" longer. wouldnt there have to be something different to accomodate the extra 3/8" of axle
say, different hub knuckle?? trans?? LCA??
see what i'm saying
