The guy who did my suspension work said he was thinking about making up some "half sizes" of shims. He never did AFAIK but if somebody's gonna tool up, it might be worth doing.

Be a piece o'cake for somebody with a wire EDM machine. Program the profile, stack up a bunch of plates of different thicknesses and have at it.

QUOTE(Brad Roberts @ Sep 16 2003, 02:02 PM) but I think the torque settings for these are around 17lb ft. B My book says 50 ft-lbs. 17 doesn't sound right. |

Brad, wasn't trying to be a jerk. Your points obviously carry a lot of weigh for most of
us normal folks, and I don't want anybody headin' out to the garage putting 17 on the torque wrench because they heard it from you. |

15x7 Phone dials, the 195-55 Dunlops shown fit tighter than my Kumo 205-50 Victoracers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
Lots of neg camber, getting it alinged soon. Can't get it as low as it was but it's only ~3/4" higher. Attached image(s) |
