so i bought a stick part (an actual stick). and the metal part that goes into the actual stick is messed up. the top 2 prongs are out of place. if i move them will it still work right. it won’t fit in the slot at all. here is a picture. it also looked worse than in this picture.

thank you for the responses in advance 
You can bend them back into place.
my only concern is that if i do that it won’t work. can’t believe i forgot to mention that in my post lol. i would to like to hear from someone if they had to do this.
Relax, unles its an extreme bend it wont break the pin or the electric connection. (i did a 90 degree pin bend on a stick that would not fit in the case)
okay thank you. my next question is where do i find the pliers. lol thx
You should be able to do it with your fingers.
What is the stock tension on the LS-40 spring?

Just use a small flat head screw driver.
My friend wants me to build a stick for him, and I want to make sure I’m doing it right. I plan to make him a Tek-Case, and he wants it to be compatible with PS3 and 360. So I just want to make sure: does the PS360+ support PS3 and Xbox 360 naturally, or do I need to gut a PCB from another controller?

PS360 supports what your friend needs it to support. No other PCB’s necessary.
I’m thinking about getting a new monitor, I currently run a Viewsonic VA2232vm and it’s been great for five years. But now I’m weighing options and I decided to go with an ASUS this time. What’s the difference between vs228h and ve228h? The latter is cheaper on ebay due to it being a refurb, which I’m okay with btw.
Thank you Darksakul, but the link you provided gives an error 
Weird it works for me
Don’t try to copy and paste, just click on the link and see what happens

I am thinking you copy and paste the link and missed a portion. Best I could figure.
For what its worth the original worked for me when I clicked it yesterday, repost too.
I’m thinking about switching back to stick, and I’m curious to how the Sanwa JLF would operate with both a Kowal actuator
with 2lb spring, while also having a circle gate installed?
I’d like to play mostly Tekken on it, but also play some 2D fighters like KOF or Persona.
I want to adjust getting back on stick before investing in a Crown, but I also want a stick with cost-effective
customization before burning too much cash.
A “bootleg korean” stick if you will (Shoutouts to XBL_Punisher1564) before investing in the real thing.
Okay, that was a long question but any thoughts on the matter? Thanks.
One last question: I’m starting to become a fan of the carbon fiber covers, so I was thinking
about buying the vinyl material to cover the TE metal layout of my stick (with the SF4 stick off).
There’s so much of it that I don’t know which brand to use, or more to the point reailble and
long-lasting. I heard 3M was pretty good, but what’s a good recommendation to start with?
Thanks again.
Someone recommended this in an earlier thread,
I ordered and received it but havent used it yet. My intent is to cover the metal top plate of a dreamcast agetec.
