Wheel Alginment Part II

[Steve Stegmann <stegmann@domain.elided>]

I've located a source for camber adjustment shims.  it is very simple to 
adjust the camber.  The shims, actually one, is placed between the 
spindle and the yoke.  As long as the brake is mounted on these same 
bolts, on top of the spindle, that's all there is to is.

On some installations the caliper is mounted directly to the yoke, not
with the spindle.  in this case these shims cannot be used.  The brake
would be out of alignment.  It should work with drum brakes because the
backing plate carrying the shoes is mounted to the same bolts as the
spindle. 

I've looked at mine ('79 D44, disc brakes) and it appears that it should 
work.  Problem is, I won't know till I disassemble it.

Does anyone see any problem with this?
