<VV> LM steering box shims

[corvairduval at cox.net]

fastvair dropped from my reply, they don't listen to me.... Another case of
a non-member being treated differently than a member-go figure. ggg

The shim OD is the same as the OD of the adjusting screw head. The ID would
be to allow the shim to screw down the threads and stay in the non-threaded
area of the adjusting screw just below the head.

I am away from my steering box parts right now (at work), so I cannot
measure one. I do not recall ever taking a box apart and not seeing a shim
under the adjusting screw head.

The  CX3810 is out of stock. The box I took apart very carefully has NO 
shims in  
it. If someone could describe the general dimensions(ID OD), I'd make a  
washer 
(.063-.069) to get the .002 or so required . I assume they are  washers 
with a 
dia. big enough to slip over the CX 3809 shaft, but not to  bind the 
adjusting 
motion.
