One other question, with the new bearing the old shim is too thick. So Flackmaster is going to send me some thinner ones. But just to be sure, is there a specified about of play/clearance that is supposed to be there so I know what size shim I need?


Nothing in the 1937 service manual but on pages 22 and 23 of Section III in the 1946-50 Service Manual a pull of 1 to 3 pounds at the outer end of the steering knuckle is specified.
Just adjusting shims for a slight drag should suffice.
