Axle Shim
An Axle Shim, sometimes referred to as an axle alignment shim or pinion angle shim, is a small but essential component in vehicle suspension systems. These shims are designed to fine-tune the alignment and positioning of various suspension components, particularly the axle and leaf springs. By installing axle shims, you can adjust the pinion angle and correct issues related to driveline vibrations and handling.

Selecting the correct Axle Shim is critical to ensure your vehicle's suspension functions optimally. When choosing axle shims, consider factors like the type of suspension system your vehicle has, the degree of adjustment required, and the size and specifications of your axle. Pinion angle shims, for example, are used to modify the angle of the axle's pinion gear in relation to the driveshaft. Leaf spring shims are utilized to fine-tune the alignment of leaf springs, affecting the vehicle's ride height and load-carrying capacity.
