If a transmission requires shims, order the shims through the parts distribution system.

Installing most shims will change the transmission angle approximately 1/2 degree.

When shimming transmissions, use a shim made from steel stock at the necessary thickness. Ensure that the shim contacts the full width of the area to be shimmed. Do not use washers.
