Default Alignment Shims for Jag Rear End
Gang,

A friend is finishing a 25 year old midstates Cobra with Jag IRS.

He is looking for shims for the front suspention and the JAG IRS suspension to complete his alignment.

Any recommendations on where to source these shims?

Thank you.

Jeff

Buy some shim stock and make your own.

But those Jag rear hub shims are round, and just the right diameter, and just the right thickness to get just the right end play. How would you make your own?

When I built mine years ago, I got them from the Jaguar dealership. They didn't have all the thicknesses available but they had the ones I needed.
