Just curious if all 88-2000 d-series axles are universal. An example: I bought a SOHC ZC and I'm going to buy an SI tranny. I also will have some 90-93 knuckles/hub assemblies. I'd like to use the Si trans, some kind of d-series axles and put those into the 90-93 integra hubs.
D-series axles universal?

Even if it's from a...like...95 civic Dx?

'96+ have unequal-length axles... my driver's side one is like 3 feet long. Long enough to need a rubber dampener in the middle.
I know many earlier ones had an intermediate shaft that made both axles the same length.

AFAIK, the only ones that had intermediate shaft setup are DOHC motors. Although there are maybe some SOHC JDM ZCs that had it also. Also, if you're using using a ZC diff, you'll need to use the inter-shaft setup, cuz the diff doesnt have the machined groove to c-clip the driver side axle in place, so the moment you drive off, the axle pops out (ask me how i know, hehe...). The D16s have the proper holes machined/tapped for the bracket so the conversion is easy. D15s dont and need a custom bracket. I've done the inter-shaft setup on both...

just to clear some things up:
1) no USDM SOHC civics used intermediate shafts
2) i'm not positive about EF's, but EG's have un-equal length axles (green hornet made it kinda seem like only EK's had them)
3) all civics (except for STD's and HF's) and tegs have the same size hub splines
