 (strongly I might add) that I use the spacers, but the topic of shims never
 came up. I'll ask him about the shims when I go back there this week, I need
 to go back this week and pick up the rest of my 7/16 wheel studs. Meanwhile
 Ed at "Just Brits" replied back to me to let me know that he carried the
 shims also, since he's a fellow Lister... I'll give him first chance. >>

    Since you have seen fit to "publish" the "repy", leave us "publish" 
CORRECTLY, please.
I replied to your query and I quote:
       "I stock them for customers, Drew."
KEY word being "customers".  With EVERY front end "rebuild 'kit'" I send 10 
shims of thin sizes and 4 of FAT ones.  I do not send bill.  The customer 
gets the job done and THEN I send Invoice.
You bought all you parts else where and want me to bail you out??  NOT!!
All shims are available thru about 4 catalogs and you just have to BUY a 
large enough selection inorder to complete the job.  Then you may TRY to 
"return" the "used" but not "used" ones for credit.
I have GREAT customers including a BUNCH in CA..   They are, without doubt, a 
FANTASTIC bunch (especially The Witch).  I WILL NOT depleat my normal stock 
of items needed for this sorta job to a non-customer.
My "stock" and my "knowledge" do, in fact, cost.
Cheers..............
