maddox710 Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 Shims aren't adjustable they either need new shims or the old shaving down depending on clearances Quote
MickL Posted June 30, 2017 Author Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) It's not for ajusting, just what their called, I need it to remove and replace the shims Edited June 30, 2017 by MickL Quote
MickL Posted June 30, 2017 Author Posted June 30, 2017 No I want to remove the shims with cam still in placeCalled shim ajusting tool, Quote
Ollieh17 Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) Pretty sure the 4e head is the same set up as charade. It's possible to remove them without taking the cams out with a special service tool. But it's easier to just remove the cams Edited June 30, 2017 by Ollieh17 Quote
maddox710 Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 Theres not enough space around the buckets from the casting and no space under the cam. It's easy just the pull the cams off and keep everything organised and labelled as you go Quote
