H22 Hatch Axles
I have had the car now for bout 3 weeks and allready had to replace the driverside axle. Now bout a week after I replaced the axle its clicking again!! Is it normal for axles to go out that quick with the H22 in a hatch? Do you think the car might be too low? The top of the tire sits at the edge of the fender, doesnt tuck but there is no wheel gap. I dont do much straight line driving, I like pushing the car to its handling limits. Could autocross/road race type driving be causing the axles to take a shit?
Thanks in advance, Frankie

You have Adam's old hatch right? That thing is SLAMMED! Maybe try raising her up a bit or throwing in stock suspension. I've had my h22 in my ek for a few months now, I beat on the car on a daily basis and my axles are in great shape. I'm running drive shaft shop axles. Car is at pretty much stock ride height, although the front end did drop significantly once the H22 was in..

The H22 EG swap CAN NOT BE SLAMMED OR DROPPED TO LOW due to the fact that the axles sits at a slight angle in the EG with that swap. So the hight of the car is critical in the fact that you dont want the axles to snap. I know the car has the S2 suspension on it so raise it an inch or so and try it like that. LMK If you need help with anything.
