Is the use and placement of these shims covered in the instructions that come with the brace?

Yes, the instructions tell you where to use them.

It's a great product and does everything he say's....however, make sure you get the right model.

I bought one off a forum member a while back that was supposed to fit the 87 C4. Didn't fit, regardless of the instructions.

Check with him and make sure you're getting the right one for your car

After all the good things I've heard about this product, I was planning to get one anyway. Now the discount just gave me the perfect excuse to order one up! Thanks Dave!

Hey Dave, we'll miss you at Sanford this weekend.

For verts, this and the cross bar are the ticket to firm up that wobble when you hit the bumps.

Don't worry. If anyone can't follow Dave's instructions for his products, they may want to rethink even putting gas in their car w/o professional assistance! Had I mentioned before how much I like my camber brace? And my Cross Bar, and my Cross Frame....

[QUOTE=Strick]Hey Dave, we'll miss you at Sanford this weekend.QUOTE]

I wish I could be there.

Right now we're planning on Labor Day week-end for sure. I've got to run a few local events to get use to the new car. I've only raced one day this year and I'm afraid as much as you guys have been running, you'll show me up big time. :o

Yes. we do. It is actually one of the easier ones to install because it comes in 3 pieces.

Check it out, it's at the bottom of the page.

Hard to say,they are all great. They address different issues. Check out R-Ds website www.r-dracing.com and see which problem area you want to take care of first.

Just ordered mine, Superb deal.
I am always skeptical when someone gets great reviews, because guys that deliver good service and go that bit farther are few and far between these days .
Well now I know why he gets the and can say that Dave IS a great guy to deal with. Top Guy.
