go to clubrsx and look into 0857 rteering rack bracket. its a bolt on mod that will help straighten out your tie rod angles and help with the bump steer problem. Fits the rsx and the 7th gen civic.

do to the way the chassis is set up you can't run inverted tie rod ends on a 7thgen civic like you can with the rsx and si. cause when the suspension fully unloads it will slam the tie rod into the frame bending it or snapping it not so pretty. frame support is higher in our cars.

I tried to invert mine but the frame got in the way and I could just disaster as soon as I lifted one of the front wheels off the ground. I have to much travel for it to work in my suspension
