Axle shims

Recommended Posts

Looking for a variety of metal axle shims for a 1949 Chrysler.

Mine came to me in pieces and I know there should be some shims on the axle just behind the seal.

#681319 = thin

#681320 = medium

#681321 = thick

#681322 = extra thick

These have a 4-5/8 O.D and a 3-5/8 I.D. with 5ea. 3/8" holes and part of the

outside diameter is clipped off.

thanks for all the help.

Determine the thickness needed per the instructions in the manual. Remember to measure with both axles installed and backing plates installed. Then order shim material from an industrial supply company like mcmaster carr.  Cut and make your own replacement.
