Re: [Chrysler300] Shim Pack for '63-'64 300 Rear Axle

["Mark Lindahl" <mplindahl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Again,

The Service Manual does not mention any Axle flange gasket, but Napa and AutoZone show a gasket.  Neither show shims are still available.
http://www.autozone.com/R,125776/vehicleId,1829601/initialAction,partProductDetail/store,2567/partType,01948/shopping/partProductDetail.htm

Can anyone tell me if the gasket came along later, perhaps as a fix?  Or maybe this was used on 1965 and up?
If the gasket is used, then the steel shims would be affected for the 0.013-0.018 inch axle end play.
Any advice is welcome.  My 300 is apart at the mechanic and he does not know whether to use the gasket along with the shims.

Regards,
Mark Lindahl

  Hi All,

  Does anyone know how to obtain the following shims for the rear axle, '63-'64 300?
  I assume that a combination of these are used to get the correct 0.013-0.018 in. axle shaft end play?

  0.005 thick 2070866
  0.012 2070868
  0.030 2070870

  Thanks,
  Mark Lindahl
  '63 300 Conv.
