What mods would you need for a dual bend? I have a dual bend in my hatch now from BLOX and no mods were needed at all... :roll:

eg6b20r - what are the benefits of the dual bend? the bearings are almost shot in this one and afraid of it breaking after researching more about it. so looking into alternatives

the benefits with the dual bend it put the shifter closer to you. it dont change the hight but with the ebay ones i dont know.

integra shifter where the bolt go's through on the bottom linkage are different widths. you can either grind down the dual bend to accomodate the civic shifter linkage,if you have bushing o ring type.But if its two bearings you can widen your shifter linkage to accomodate the integra shifter.
