JDM Dc2r can't find the right drive shaft.

**EGBenny** · 22-11-2008 01:36 PM

I installed jdm dc2r suspension (36mm) on my car (dc4 integra gsi) and i can't find a drive axle that will work. I tried taking a crv 36mm outer off and putting it on my shafts but the inner spline of the outer is too large for my shafts. Is there any other axle i can use or outer axle thats 36mm that will fit on? or am i stuck trying the find jdm ones? I am up for any ideas people have or some direction where to buy some aftermarket one.

the DC5R shafts are 36mm

i don't think they will fit with b series, they would be wrong length and not fit in the diff?

was thinking more along the lines of taking the outter bell and putting on your current shaft, or better yet get another jdm dc2r set, or try your local wreckers might get lucky

I am trying to find a set of 36mm itr's. After taking of the crv outer off and it didn't fit i would assume the dc5r outer will be the same and not fit on the shaft.

post up some pics of ur current drive shafts.

So what do u need exactly? mid shaft to go with the outer passenger side and driver side??

And what has suspension got to do with the drive shaft????

What motor did u put in?

If you need 36mm, find urself a set of 98 spec itr ones.

arnt AUDM shafts the same on our DC2R

jdm dc2r = 36mm
ausdm dc2r = 32mm
ek9 = 32mm
if i recall correctly

you could use the 98 spec itr shafts which are 36mm like sir_vtec said.

I have standard gsi drive shafts which are 32mm nut. I was hoping there was some other 36mm outer cv joint (the part that goes into the hub) that would fit on my drive shafts. Im starting to think my only chance is to find some jdm itr shafts which are hard to find.

i would have just used the crv ones but they are too long so i took the outer off and the outer of my shafts and tried to put it on except the inner spline is to small

I never planned on putting the 5lug on my dc4, i planned it for the eg with a k24 utilizing the 36mm for stronger shafts but i totaled my eg.

also don't forget jdm dc2r came as 96 spec and 98 spec models -
98 spec = 36mm
96 spec = 32mm

benny - what engine do you have in the car?

dc5r fits 98 spec 36mm hub - as it one of the options whens it comes to doing a k-swap with out the need to do a combination of k-series shafts/b-series parts to fit 32mm hubs.

Atm i still have the original engine b18b so i don't think i can use dc5r's because they would be wrong length? and the outer cv would be different inner spline not fitting on my original shafts like the crv ones didn't.
