Baywindow Bus Steering Box Shim - 1955-72 (0.10mm)

This 0.10mm steering box shim is designed for use in Volkswagen Splitscreen and Early Baywindow Bus steering boxes manufactured between March 1955 and July 1972.

These precision shims are installed inside the steering box assembly, allowing you to set the correct end float and preload on the worm gear bearings. Maintaining accurate tolerances within the steering box is critical to achieving smooth steering movement, reducing play, and preventing premature wear of the internal components.

Each shim is 0.10mm thick and can be used individually or in combination with other shim sizes to achieve the required clearance during steering box assembly or rebuild. This part is essential when performing any steering box overhaul, adjustment, or restoration, ensuring correct setup and long-lasting, precise steering performance.

Manufactured from high-quality steel, each shim is cut and finished to exact dimensions for reliability and durability under pressure.
