Just putting my strut tower brace from BMR on my Camaro. It says that the brace will sit flush against the strut tower. on the one sent to me the rear of the brce rests on a ridge behind the bolts and the front of the brace is on the tower face itself. Does it sound like BMR sent me the wrong brace, or do they all sit on an angle like this?

Thanx for any reply

its not the wrong brace. just get it on the bolts the best you can and tighten the **** out of them...you wont have a problem

 

Yeah just tighten the shi+ out of them with a wrench. There are ridges but that is as flush as it will get.

 

im pretty sure you should jack the front of your car up before doing this too so when you sit it back down the so the bar is actually holding a load and helping

 

I'll move this over to the LT1 Tech forum...

 

Hmmm, been thinking of getting an STB, would you jack it up from the Kmember, or jack stand it at the jacking points behind the front tires. Or does it not matter, what about the 3 pointers?

 

No need to jack up the car, just bolt it on.

 

That is what I do, just bolt it down.
I have a three point but I don,t bolt it up by the windshield.
