Default New axle boot installed VIBRATION NOW

Well when I went to ORP I busted a Axle boot somewhere on the way home early in the trip.
I called D.S.S. and orderd a new boot kit for the driver side inner CV and I installed it myself.

"Been through 4 boots on same driver side inner CV in 4 years" I average one per year because of the angle of the shaft.

And here is looking through the wheel


Now after I got it taken apart spun the bearings and they spun with out any restriction"via flat spot or heat locked" I put it all back together and I went for a drive. Well my lil **** under load/WOT vibrates like a mo fo. Not that it's just the solid rear mount vibration, but in the steering WHEEL itself I have it bad. Even the Roll Cage humms from it.

Anyone "JAREBEAR OR XENO" that has the H22 in a Hatch have axle issues yet.

Going to call DDS tomorrow since it ------- LABOR DAY and order another gease and band kit along with 6 bearings.
---- this ---- better get here by friday.

what are you for the left (driver)?

If you are using 90-93 integra cv-shaft then you'll keep having problems.

just read this: http://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=650329

yeah I know honda-tech but they do some helpful info.

but overall they still suck

Thinking about making a modification to my driver side mount to move the motor back further toward the engine bay. I have enough adjustment for the passender mount and the read mount to do so I think.

The Stage 3.9 and 5.9 have a nifty little freeze plug that seal the inside of the joint from the shaft. They are great for falling out and creating rotational noise or vibrations, so look closely.
