The shims for the drive shaft angle should be under the center bearing, not the trans mount.

Subject: Re: IML: plates on the trans mount
My friend - who has 1962 custom coupe - is also working with the transmission and he told me that he had also same kind of shim-plates between the transmission and transmission rubber mount. I'm sure that they were used to chance the driveshaft angle, so I placed them back like they were before.

The FSM shows shims on the center bearing support but I dont recall seeing any on my 62 or on the two 63's that I have owned. There is quite a bit of text in the service manual regarding the indexing and the anglularity of the prop shaft, maybe someone in the past had tried to correct a problem.
