Default Let's play, "How did this ever happen???"

Well, I got my trailing arms out today. This very interesting shim was released when once I got the bolt out.

Anyone want to guess how this happened???

I`m gonna guess Bubba was pounding it in with a hammer ,,,Then it started bending,,,,,, so he tried to pull it out,,,,,,It was stuck,,,,,,So he just decided to go ahead and pound it on in and that will hide it... He did my 80 the same way...

Wrong! Bubba was short 1 shim. Taking precise measurements and discovering in the process that folding over one shim made 2 shims he did so, thereby saving weight and money. A brilliant and creative solution to a complex problem. :yesnod:
