So i decided to modify my integra dual bend shifter today.It starter with two throttle body bearings i got from a dodge stratus throttle body.I then got a piece of pipe about an inch in length for the bearings to press into.

Here is what i started with:



From there i cut the previous lower portion of the shifter off and and i extended it an inch.With the 1'' long pipe i welded a bolt to it and extended it where i was comfortable with.



I then filled the bolt in with weld and ground it down so it looks half sensible.



Heres a pick of the bearings pressed in like you would get with an aftermarket shifter.Why buy new when with some time make your own for nothing ;)




I installled it after i finished.What a difference from upgrading to bearings over a bushing/rubber o-ring style.The shifts are just right too.Anyways i hope somebody gets this idea and uses it for thier shfter in the future. Cheers

mods please move this to somewhere it ill be noticed.Not all previous members will see this

IF, I had a welder I would of done this a while back.
But good write up

thanks alot.I could of done a better job on it but i had a timeline(gf is in school)..I could of used a peice of round stock and beveled the edges and filled them in but that required time to dig up a peice of rounds stock lmao.

Id recommend this for anyone with a mig or hobby welder.Its very easy but make sure you weld it straight.Thats why i used two sockets and a straight edge to keep it true.
