Somebody asked about having shims made. One way to do it if it's not too bad it to cut them out of aluminum, which only requires a drill bit and a cheap tin snip from Harbor Freight. I made these for N56ML, "temporarily", and like a lot of things, they ended up doing 2825 landings. So they do work. Each of these two in the enclosed picture is .020" thick, and I estimate that each is good for about .9 degrees of toe-in or -out, camber, or the combination when overlapping (as in the photo). The dotted red line denotes useless material (based on wear marks) that I shouldn't have been carry around all those years.
You can probably pick up aluminum from some airport scraps, or buy a 1'x1' piece from AS&S for cheap...but then there's shipping. Make sure you clamp the piece to the table when drilling...this stuff is thin enough to cut you. I almost lost a fingertip this way when I was in college...
