I'm in need of some front and rear bearing shims for the BJ8 transmission.
Moss, AHS, DW don't sell them.
Does anyone know the specific sizes of these and where I might be able to buy them?
Moss lists two sizes for the front, .002 and .004. No size mentioned for the rear. I don't think front/rear are interchangeable.
I believe their purpose is to insure there is the correct amount of contact/pressure between the Mainshaft bearing and the Overdrive Adaptor Plate and the 1st input shaft bearing and the Clutch Housing. So the Mainshaft/1st input shaft is pressed firmly together limiting free play?
What happens if the shims aren't sized correctly? Will the gears on the 1st motion/Mainshaft and or Laygear have excessive wear? Not shift smoothly? Make noise?
