{"product_id":"k-series-swap-rsx-ep3-front-axle","title":"K-Series Swap \/ RSX \/ EP3 Front Axle","description":"The Insane Shafts IS-015 and IS-016 axles are a robust upgrade for vehicles featuring K-series engine swaps, specifically for the EF Civic\/CRX, and for the 2002-2006 Acura RSX Base and 2002-2005 Honda Civic Si (EP3). If you're pushing these applications beyond stock power levels, these axles are engineered to be a critical component that won't let you down, capable of handling up to 500 wheel horsepower on both the street and track.\n\nThis crucial step relieves internal stresses within the metal, allowing the shaft to handle torsional loads effectively without premature fatigue, even under repeated hard use. The outer joints are equipped with 26-spline hubs, ensuring proper fitment for K-swapped EF chassis and RSX Base\/EP3 applications. The CV joints are manufactured to OEM-style tolerances, aiming to provide smooth daily driving operation without the common vibrations or clunking found in lesser aftermarket parts.\n\nEach kit includes new, sealed inner and outer CV boots for long-term protection and comes with new spindle nuts, ensuring you replace critical hardware when installing this premium component. The kit contains a complete left (IS-015) and right (IS-016) axle pair, along with removable ABS rings where applicable. There is no core charge required, and these are designed as a long-term solution rather than a temporary fix.\n\n**Important Fitment Notes:**\nThese axles fit the 2002-2006 Acura RSX Base model. They do NOT fit the RSX Type-S or Type-R models. For the Honda Civic Si, they fit the 2002-2005 EP3 hatchback. For the 1988-1991 Honda Civic and CR-X, they are specifically for models with a K-series engine swap. A K20 RSX\/EP3 half-shaft is required for all EF Civic and CR-X K-swap applications; verify your half-shaft before ordering.","brand":"Insane","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52688834199864,"sku":"IS-015-016","price":546.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/664720306.webp?v=1784897731","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/k-series-swap-rsx-ep3-front-axle","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
