I wondered if anyone has the shim diagram for the link pins. The amount of shims to be used when setting up the geometry.

Measure displacemant of lower eye.should be .28 +- .08
correct the error with .02 shims were
A = top inner
b = top outer
c = lower inner
d = lower outer

Displacement No of shims
A B C D
.20 1 7 5 3
.22 2 6 5 3
.24 2 6 4 4
.26 3 5 4 4
.28 3 5 3 5
.30 4 4 3 5
.32 4 4 2 6
.34 5 3 2 6
.36 5 3 1 7

as you can see each link has 8 shims
IF displacement is greater than .28
add shims to A from B & to D from C

Thus if less than .28 add shims to b from A
& to C from D

If this does not work. Remove torsion arms & check them.do not add extra shims..
