I removed the front lever arm shocks from my '59 Bugeye this weekend and shipped them off to Peter C. for a re-build. Upon removing the shock body from its mounting location, I found shims that were located between the shock body and the mounting platform in two locations on both sides. The shims resemble shims used for caster alignment on domestic vehicles, i.e. slotted shims. Is there any logical, or even illogical reason/need to shim the front shocks? Thanks.
