That is sort of what I figured,,,, I've never seen one or noticed one with shims. I suppose it is possible that they were never adjusted on other cars and the builder took it for granted that it was correct. Me,,,,, I check and double check everything as I go and then check and double check each assy. and what it's relationship is on everything else. I've worked on a few other cars and the suspension geometry was a joke. The hack that set up the suspension on Ron Wideners coupe didn't even have the A-arms in the same plane yet nobody even noticed.
Thanks for the input. It verify's what I finally figured out. On the good side, I now know that all the components are true and square.
