With your dx your hubs are fine, you can use whatever axles you want as long as they match your tranny, meaning b series.. now if you had an std.... ha ha your car, then you would have to swap hubs..

you using the black welded steel mounts that cost like $100? if so you can use hasport since they position the motor exactly the same....can also get a 90/93 teg linkage and cut and reweld it if you have the tools/know-how..

well the mounts dont matter.. the linkage connects to your tranny and your short shifter... by cheap what you mean

i know hasport doesn't sell the linkage by itself anymore, you have to get the motor mounts in order to get the linkage. but jhpusa.com sells linkages individually. I tried to shorten a DA linkage and it bound up with the torque arm and would only shift in 1st to 2nd. So I bought a hasport linkage. When I put the two linkages side by side and on top of each other it was really close to being the same, just one small bend was different and caused me to have to get a hasport. I say save yourself the time and trouble and get a hasport.
