DUMB QUESTION #33:) Camber brace?
What is it exactly? I'm guessing it is some sort of stiffener for the suspension, what are the gains, how bad to install, how much $ to buy, where to get one? Thanks for now. I'm sure I'll have another dumb question again! :lol: :cheers:

Re: DUMB QUESTION #33:) Camber brace? (SSLT1KID)
The Camber Brace connects the A-arms together, to eliminate flex. The Brace results in: "the front end angles that you set during alignments will stay at those angles when corning the car and help maintain a more constant contact patch of the tire to the ground. With the end result being higher speed into the corner, faster out of it, with quicker lap times and more security on the open road."
One of the best mods you can get. :cheers:

I installed mine Saturday and so far I am loving it. I ordered it from Dave and have had it for over a month. No problems with installation at all. Very easy. My only recommendation would be to replace your belt if needed before installation. I didn't and as soon as I took it for the first drive with the brace in, the belt started to shred. I don't know how hard it will be to replace with the brace on but I am not looking forward to it at all.

Re: DUMB QUESTION #33:) Camber brace? (mayberry)
install was 5 minute job on my lt1, ive re/re'd it so many times now its easy. It stiffenes the front end... makes my car steering wheel feel so light, and.. stops the sterring wheel shake/vibration almost completely. My 93 drives solid with the roof on. With the brace and the roof off it drives liek it used to without the brace and the roof on. Real tight, not to mention the handlig benefits you will gain.
