spindle shims
Posted: Thu Jun 22, 2017 4:40 pm
Hi all,
One of the rear bearings of my C3 vette gave up on my last week and I'm busy replacing them. I have a problem in the sense that the bearings need to be shimmed correctly. I have a set of shims, but to get close to a minimum I would need some special shims that are not available.
I was thinking of lapping the spacer to size on a piece of glass with a sanding paper on it, however I'm unsure if I would be able to keep it square.
Any ideas ?
