Link pin question

[Dick Weiss]

OK, Brad;

I'll stand corrected, but the shop manual looks like there's a shim outside the seal ring; However, it's the
champher/radius of the trailing arm 'eyes'.

Anyone know, or can easily measure how wide a new link pin bushing is?

Thanks

Phil,

I'm assuming "Wide" is referring to the dimension end to end, not diameter.
Will check.

[Phil Planck]

Yes - thanks Norm

[Albert Tiedemann]

Actually it shows 42 + 4 sectional shims but whose counting?

Me!

I was beginning to think I was seeing double.

Thanks a ton Brad. The 1.335 is what I needed, as I had to grind mine down to match the worn knuckle and forgot to measure before grinding. Now I know how many extra shims I need to get back to stock thickness.
