To List,

I'm in the process of replacing my rear axle/wheel bearings.  I've noticed
some interesting things about how the PO took care of them.  Most concerning
is the lack of any shims on them.  I've looked at the repair manual and it
says there should be two shims per wheel.  Also, others on the List have
pointed out how important it is to make I put the shims on correctly.  Since I
don't have any, what should I do?  Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated.
On a side note, thanks to all who gave me rear brake cylinder advice.  The new
ones are on and look great!
