Ryan,

Thanks so much for the shim templates.  I will try to see if I can locate
some Delrin.

1/4" is the max thickness on the front.......What is the max thickness for
the rear?, I think my van needs 3/4" to 1".

Thanks again....and cool and professional template, what program did you
use?

Of course the performance way to go would be to use the custom springs from
Steve. ( @ Syncro.org......17" height-nice!)

But a pain in the ass to install the fronts.....wow!

Hi There!

Here's the template you're looking for.

I'd recommend Delrin as the material to make them
from.

Worked for me on my 89 Westy, but you might want to
check the measurements for yourself.

Good luck!

-Ryan
