Shims wanted

#1 PostAuthor: Coose » Mon May 14, 2018 3:20 pm

Afternoon all,

I'm going to need a few shims for my J having just rebuilt the top end and would also like a few spares as I'll probably have to change some once I get a few miles on it and everything has settled.

I definitely need a 260 and a 275 but could probably do with a few smaller ones too so that in with the ones that come out I'll hopefully have a reasonable selection. I know that there is the shim swap service, but I'd rather have a few here.

I seem to have missed out on a few being sold recently, but does anyone have a handful kicking about?

Cheers,
Coose

Cheers. I've actually had that page open on my phone for a couple of days but was wondering if anyone had some kicking about before buying new. :)
