Default Prelude axels fit 5th gen civic..?

Do the prelude axels fit in the civic? If i bought the complete h22 swap it comes with half shafts and axels, but will they fit? Or do i have to get different axels?

I know i need the mount kit too.

Negative on that they were to big for my 5th gen accord. I ended up using new accord axles for my h22a swap.

You can use '90-'93 integra axles if you wanted to (I would suggest at least getting the '92-'93GSR axles if you go this route). With this though you would need to get the intermediate shaft from a '90-'93 Accord. This way is prone to having the axle pop out (believe me I know) because it is not a perfect fit. If you stay with the prelude intermediate shaft hasport makes an axle that wil fit in perfectly. you also will not have to worry about it poping out

widebodyEK is right, u need custom axles, to my knowledge you cant use b-series axles with a H series motor. but i have heard it alot to when doing a H22A swap in anything other than a accord or prelude to use upgraded axles. just make sure u get better front springs, progress springs i think thats there name, makes springs specificly for lowered civics with h22a's in them
