The trailing arm shims need replaced in my 1980. I bought the shims a few years back but just haven't gotten around to replacing them yet. Any time I've looked for advice for installing new ones all I've ever found is everyone saying to "Just measure the width as it is and replace them to the same measurements". My problem is that the old shims have rusted so badly that they have disintegrated into dust and therefore each side is different. I need to know if anyone can help by advising me what measurements I could use to install new shims from scratch or any other advice they could give me.:ugh
