[TR] trailing arm shims

[james mc arthur]

Good day to all. I am in the process of reassembling the rear suspension on 
my '74 and have a question. Can anyone tell me what the thickness is, in 
thousandths, of the trailing arm shims? I am trying to 'rust proof' as I 
tackle projects, so I took the shims to work, had them vibed, and then run 
through our plater. They have been plated, as well as had a rust proofer 
applied to them. Now, I am concerned that I may have unintentionally 
increased their thickness, and will mess up the settings if I install the 
same number of shims that I removed. With that in mind, I'd like to know the 
thickness of the shims so I can replace them with the same thickness as 
removed. I hope all of this makes sense and that you are following me. 
Anyone that can help would earn my thanks and respect. Thanks to all that 
reply. I'm at jrmcarthur at verizon.net, if you would like to reply offlist. 
Many thanks!.....Jim McArthur
