Default Wanted: trailing arm shims

I am needing some original steel trailing arm shims for an early 1970. These are the ones with a hole in each end, not the slotted ones. I need an assortment of shims to do a complete car. I think these shims were used from 1964 til sometime in 1970. Let me know what you have. Please no stainless steel. Thanks

51-29B for new ones

If you need used ones let me know how many and what thickness you want and I will check. Scott

I am wanting good used ones. Right now in the car are slotted ones. I want to pull them out and do a 1 for 1 swap. I need 4 of the thick ones, 3 of the med. ones, 3 of the thin ones and 2 that look like they are between the med. and thin size. How many thicknesses are there? I thought there was only 3. I'm not going to take them out until I have some to go back in with. Thanks, Dallas

There are 4 sizes 1/4 1/8 1/16 1/32 Most of the original 2 thinner ones did not survive the rust. I have all of the ones you need 1/4 and 1/8 very good used 1/16 and 1/32 new( old steel repros not SS).
