  • Need some Help

    Hello guy and gals, I am in need of some shims so that I can get my bike back on the road.

    These are the shims that I need:
    1ea. Y245
    1ea. Y250
    2ea. Y255

    Yes I will send you four shims for four shims.

    Thanks in advance , Steve

    Steve,

    Hopefully someone can help you out. However, I found that if you check with the smaller bike shops, some of them have shims on hand and will sell you shims for $2-3 a piece.

    Also, IIRC, Ford Taurus has the same shims in it. They are 29 mm diameter.
    Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

    When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

      Ok

      Thanks for the info, I guess a trip to the Ford Parts Dept might be in order.

      Thanks, Steve

        Sorry but all the shims I have currently are larger than what you need except for 1-255 shim. Wish I could help.
