HOW TO SHIM LINK PINS

Just 'cause I spent some time drawing this up for a question I couldn't answer without it. This shows a type 2 "flipped" spindle...but the shimming procedure is pretty much the same for any link pin suspension.

Put all of your link pin shims into one pile, and divide it into 4 equal piles for each link pin. You should have 7-10 shims for each link pin. This is a pre-shim setting. More times than not, this is close enough to be done with and drive on. If you want the be really picky, you can make sure the car is level side to side, and use a bubble level(or inclometer) on the face of the spindle to set the camber.
