I should have gotten this info out weeks ago, but i have had not had a chance to even look at my e-mail, let alone write any, it's been so busy. (I owe e-mail responses to a bunch of people...sorry!)

The rear spring shim is roughly 6" in diameter with a 1 3/4" hole in the middle. I used on 3/16" thick to level. 1/4" should be fine.

The front spring shim is roughly 5 1/4" - 5 3/8" in diameter. It has a large 3 1/2" hole in the middle...so it is like a big washer that is about 3/4" wide. I used a spacer 1/8" thick to level the van.

Use at your own risk! Steve
