Intermediate shaft woes….
I’ve got 3.2 2007 base Acura TL and needed to replace my intermediate shaft bracket. I’ve gone thru 3 axles one from an 06..too short…07 too long? How many different styles could there be? The only one I’ve seen similar to mine is on this site where a guy had rebuilt his. The only thing I can think of is that my car is in miles so clearly made in the US. I’m in B.C. Could the parts be different because of that? I’m just a frustrated guy who could use any advice…

I doubt there is a difference based on how many car fitments are associated with 44500-SJA-000.

Mine is bottom and from shaft end to flange is 12 3/4 inches and top is 13inches also bottom of flange is different so don’t know why they keep giving me these? I don’t know what to do I’m in a pickle jar here…
Proof #1: link from OEM vendor; first picture for 44500-SEP-A00 shows a straight 'flange'.
44500-SEP-A00 Genuine Acura Cv Intermediate Shaft (acurapartswarehouse.com)
Proof #2: Ebay link shows 44500-SEP-A00 with a straight 'flange'.
04-08 ACURA TSX MT MANUAL 6 SPEED HALF SHAFT AXLE JACKSHAFT 44500-SEP-A00 OEM | eBay
However, the ebay listing shows an 'error' in fitment for a manual transmission 07-08 Base TL.
The problem is that the 07-08 Base TL only came with an automatic transmission as displayed in my post #2 above.
