I've installed a 1996 B18C engine into my EJ8 over the weekend, using the hasport mount kit, went to install the drive shafts (axles) and the one attached to the intermediate shaft was a good 15mm too short from the back of the hub... the shafts I ordered originally were for a VTiR civic hatch from 1997, I've since taken them back to the shop hoping that 1997 Integra DC2 shafts will be right this time around...

The drivers side was also shorter...

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

been told that only the 99-00 civic or 97-01 teg will work as the ones I was given by mistake were 1997 ek vtir and were too short to the hub

good advice that one was it a reputable shop that told you that it has been in the business for years?
