I may have a couple. How many does your application call for? Bruce

hi bruce, it was a bi_ch getting the arm off. there are 4. mine are corroded. i shoulda dropped it all out for an open knuckle lol

I do not know if I have 4. I will look. Those conical washers can be rough! I will not give up on my closed knuckle. LOL Are you able to save any of your shims? Bruce

I looked at mine shims. I am not certain they are better than what you have. They are very thin with some rust. Bruce
