Re: Shim Question
Yeah, simple.......don't do it. No shims.
If you do, you will be back here asking how to fix it when it wanders all over the road. To which the answer will be.......(wait for it)
Remove the shims.
Tilting the pinion up "seems" like a good thing, but only for the driveline angle. At the same time it tilts the ball-joints forward, screwing up the caster of the front wheels. They will not "self-center" and the truck twitches, darts, and wanders around. It is very difficult to drive.
Oh, while it's not likely with 4" springs, if there are already shims screwed to the spring packs, remove them.

Bad planning on your part does not necessarily constitute an instant emergency on my part....
The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
