Im sure this has been asked before but couldnt find anything on a search...

What are the factory shim settings for stock barndoor link pins? Got my replacement stock kink and links sorted, but cannot remember what the stock setting is... Mine were way out as I had a bent trailing arm anyway!!! Shocked Laughing Can anyone point me in the right direction? Cool

Here is a link that Deano had on a posting he did when he was sorting his, 4th post on this page. I think the text above corrects the offsets for Bd setup - I think Smile , using 10 shims instead of the later 8.
