Thay are for seting the camber on cars and trucks that have an upper control arm.
Nova, Chevell and thing like that.

The little ones are standard GM (chevy etc) shims used on just about any RWD unit with adjustable upper control arms. At least thats where I use to use them back in the late 70s & 80s.

My '96 2wd tacoma had similar shims between the front upper control arm and frame.

Back the trailing arm bolt off, slide the shim in, tighten the bolt back. Done.
Make sure you use the same thinkness on each of the three bolts.
