Here's the caveat- IIRC, the early 67 frames were completely flat in that area, but the later model frames had the spacer pads. Of course the '68's had the dimple and the pads. I would see what you have first and then try 2 washers on each pad. It's worked for me for 5 years now and no need to buy anything extra.
