Is the prelude hub flush with the rear trailing arm shaft?
The rear trailing arm shaft where the hub slides into will not sit FLUSH with the Prelude hub shown in the pictures below and for a fact, roughly ~30% of the inner bearings will not see any load while the other 70% will. There are many other people who have used this setup in daily driving, and auto crossing that have yet to encounter any problems.
What kind of axles do I need for 5 lug swap?

Can you use prelude hubs on Civic Integra?
As for the rear, as seen in the picture, using the prelude hubs on a civic/integra trailing arm the axle shaft only rides on 70% of the wheel bearing so there is some conflict that people think the set up might not be safe to use. Some say that most of the load will be on the most inner bearing closest to the trailing arm.
Can you buy used 5 lug suspension parts?
Yes, you can purchase a used complete 5 lug conversion online shipped to your door for cheaper but many of us who go this route factor in that majority of the parts are new and will outlast the used parts, technically speaking. This conversion uses the 32mm axles and will be discussed further more.
