    ok i am changing the gears and doing so im replacing the bearings and bearing cups now the pinion depth shim is located behind the lower bearing cup and as a result of removing this cup from the housing the shim has been damaged so i need a replacement

    so no im not adding a shim lmfao

    and it would be highly unlikely to be able to remove a shim without damaging it but thanks anyway commy92

    thanks for the suggestion subdue hopefully they can help me out i just tried calling them but i got an answering machine
