We're all just glad that the first swap you did it went like butter and you made no mistakes. ::) This is my first goddamn swap ever.. EVER..

Re: My whole goddamn swap has gone to shit!!!
 

I didn't make single post on the internet on how to do my first swap. Just research beforehand.

Type in "CRX b series axle install a bitch" in google and see what you get..

Then just mess with it for a while. This isn't rocket science.

honestly.. what is your solution in installing an axle into a LS trans. It's got a pin on the end of the spline, and thats what keeps it from going in the intermediate shaft. You can't beat on it anywhere because you ---- up the end of the shaft.. or if you beat toward the inboard joint, you'll ---- the boot up. You tell me becuase i'm goddamn clueless

that little ring is MEANT to be there and no u don`t need tools to install it just ram it in

Re: My whole goddamn swap has gone to shit!!!
 

put the right end in the tranny(get it splined up)
put the other end in the nuckle
use the nucke and the shaft to hammer it in
pull the nuckle back a bit then ram forward, repeat this over and over and she will pop in

Re: My whole goddamn swap has gone to shit!!!
 

Have the engine/trans hovering just above the mounts. Install the axles into the hub side and put the axle nut on the end. The lower ball joint should be in place and tightened. slip the ends of both axles into the trans/intermediate shaft and lower the engine/trans into the mounts, if the weight of the engine/trans is not enough to pop the axles in have your fat ass mother stand on the engine while you roll the car back and forward about an inch or so (with the wheels on obviously).

Some things to think about:
Sounds like the clip on the end of the stub shaft is what's hanging you up. Make damn sure that the clip is not bent or otherwise fucked up. Put some heavy grease on it to keep it centered on the shaft during installation, and line it up right before sliding the shaft into the trans. All of this is common sense ----. If you can't find a solution on your own, give up. You are not meant for this type of work.
