Guys - I know this has been asked before but does anyone know of suppliers / sources for the inner ball joint steering rack shims used to pack out the inner ball joints (or have they become harder to find than hens teeth) - many thanks
When I reshimmed mine I bought a set of poly 'cups' which had a backing washer. When fitted they didn't need shimming - if anything they were a little too tight. I can't remember off hand where I bought them - I have had a quick look and can't see them on the major suppliers lists anywhere. I think I bough them from Chris Wittor.
Also at the same time I took a gamble that the Triumph 2000 shims might fit. (Part No's 130031 and 130032/10). The external diameter is the same and they seem to bear in all the right places, but the hole in the middle is bigger. In the end I didn't have to use them. They fit, but it is up to to whether you deem them to be suitable.
Hi all, i also had good result s with this product eliminated slight play on inner tie rod but did replace locking tab washer availalble from ld parts .Regards Paul

Thanks Paul, oddly enough i had already got the tab washers from LD's - its hopefully just these cups now to do the job (fingers crossed)
