Default Don't you wish they'd make ... ?

This is the thread for all those little items you just can't find and really don't want to fabricate yourself. My current wish is c-shaped spacers to raise the strut tower brace. Make them so that when I use them to raise the brace, it still has full contact with the top of the strut tower instead of just the corners resting on a bunch of washers or whatever. Make them 1mm thick so I can stack them to get exactly the height I want. I would pay far too much for this lol. What do you wish for?

Get some body shims, sounds exactly like what you are looking for.

You can get a box of them in various widths at Harbor Freight pretty cheap.

Good idea but they still wouldn't allow full brace-to-strut tower contact between the bolts. Going to see what it would cost me to get custom shims made up here.

Dreading doing all the measurements, since I suck at that lol

I wish the torque converter was made in a way that you had some control over stall speed with a tune.
