  Shims installed under front shock.jpg - Measuring the shims reveals these figures. I'll install them in pairs, the .120 shim and the .030 shim stacked on each other, and the .115 shim and the .038 shim stacked together. Placing them on the inboard mounts of the shock will tilt the shock, and move the shock lever arms outboard, changing the camber.
