assuming its for your hatch?

yes.

if you look up the part numbers of the axles they are exactly the same.

i heard somewhere before, that the hatch’s have shorter axles though.

why don’t you just go and buy a civic axle from autozone for $60?

i already told you. the part numbers are the same.

and omg.

omg.

omg.

$60 for a new part that you know will work & come with warranty \> $40 for a used part, that visually looks good…and might not even fit.

this isn’t an intake or something. its a axle. and you don’t know if it needs to be taken apart and greased, or if there are any fracture marks on it…or how much abuse its had…

buy it from autozone and get the warranty. know the part will work, and fit correctly.

**do it right or do it twice.**

Axles for D-series are all the same(manual trans). What beck is thinking is the shift linkage. They are different between the Sol and the civic
