F-705L Missing Shim Stock?

OK,

Building the Seat Back Brace Bracket where the seat back slides into. F-705L is the shim under F-705K, under the F-705J angle on the back. F-705L is supposed to be made out of .063 sheet, 1/2 x 16 1/4, two parts.

I've looked through all my parts and stock. The only .063 in the kit are the 56 and 66" pieces for the middle of the roll bar (tipper) and a 2 1/4 x 10" piece. What piece of .063 am I supposed to make this out of? All the trim bundles have thin (.032 or less) stock.

UGH! If you know, let me know too.....

Hi Nate,
Very funny, but today I saw my first RV-7 SB kit. We discussed and looked at the very part of which you speak. I asked the builder how he knew that was the part to use. I don't remember the answer, but I will find out for you, or put you in touch with him.
