Pinion angle wedges/shims

Post by Goblinking »

Hello Sirs,i need to adjust the pinion angle and the easiest thing to do seems to be to use shims/wedges.
Does anyone in the uk sell them?
Rockauto dont and it seems as if it's getting harder to order from the other USA websites.

Hauser Racing may have some in stock.

I did discuss these recently with them, but we used new Perches instead.

Where are you based?

The MP perches are not a lot of cop either, the locating holes for the pins are over-sized, so not very accurate....
