He said he would have to bend some bar on my spindle, to put on my springs and shocks. im going to do a 1.8in drop with some eibachs and tokico's... do you guys recommend that or should I get a camber kit... when they Bend that bar does it go out of alignment. let me know thanks ?

What??? Thats not right . You shouldn't have to bend anything for springs and shocks unless its bent in the first place, then you should just replace the part.

I have a 99 civic sedan. (hx) they said in order to get the alignment at zero. they bend this little bar. I drift, so I hope it doesnt go all crazy.

Fudge yeah............ march 2nd be there... http://www.driftshowoff.com
Drifting a ff is easier/harder then a fr car. its not as fun as a fr is but it works. I would like to get a hatchiroku, but I can maintain with the whip I got for right now.

Well if it's something you enjoy, . As for your suspension, I don't think anything should be bent. I don't think your camber is supposed to be at exactly zero anyway.

He MIGHT be talking about bending the knuckle...its like a cheaper way to get your camber back to spec. They take out the knuckle put in the vice and bend it until they get it back to 0 or wherever. Its done a lot in racing when you arent allowed to use aftermarket camber adujsters.

But if you are only doing a 1.8 drop I think you only need to worry about your toe settngs.
