Shims Inspection

Shims Inspection

Important:

* 8.6 Rear Axle: The original cast iron production shims cannot be re-used and must be replaced with steel service shims if the differential or any production shim(s) is/are removed.


* 9.5/10.5/11.5 Rear Axle: The original cast iron production shims can be carefully removed and re-used. If the cast iron shims show any signs of excessive wear or damage, they must be replaced with service shims and spacers.


* If service shims were previously installed, the shims can be reused.


Note: Carefully inspect the shims for cracks, chips or other damage. Replace any damaged shims with NEW steel service shims only.
