I went to the local TAP plastics and had them cut the shims for me out
of the strongest plastic they had. You want something that will have
some give - not rigid plastic or you risk splitting the plastic.  I used
1/4" for the rear.  Shim at the top.  The rears are easy - the fronts
more difficult.    I have the measurements around somewhere as far as
diameter let me know if you want me to dig them up.

One last thing, the rears need to be doughnut shaped so the bump-stop
can go through them.
