Considerations & Trade-offs
- This is a refill pack, so it’s intended to supplement an existing shim kit rather than serve as a standalone full assortment.
- The shims are offered in specific hole spacing and thickness options, so compatibility depends on matching the correct .600" c-to-c spacing and .008" thickness to your setup.
- It is designed for situations where only a small amount of additional height is needed; it is not a substitute for larger alignment corrections.
- The kit is steel and blued, which may be a practical choice for many setups, but the finish and material are fixed rather than customizable.
