Hopefully you can see this. All are in inches. I traced a shim and did the dimensions with a vernier. They vary in thickness from 1/32, 1/16, 1/8 and 1/4 inch

Hi GordonM
Thanks very much, how deep is the fork in that shim, please?

Oops. Sorry. I knew I left off one dimension. The fork is 1.50 deep.
