More shims against the bearing is probably the solution, does anyone else have issues with the slipper?

I have been using the single sipper (since I also run a center-one-way). I have not had any trouble with the slipper pads wearing down quickly; in fact I am still using the same pads after one year of club racing with a Novak 6.5T.
I am using the default Tamiya build and settings for the slipper clutch. I run my spring tension between 3-4mm (this is shown as a 3-4mm gap between the nylock nut and the end of the threaded layshaft assembly). This tension has always worked great, I'm just careful to ensure that the spring is perfectly centered so the tension is equal.
