The one that holds the brake and the 2 shafts into one

Here is a pic. I have to get 1mm worth of shims under the center pinion

I just ran into this they are 8mm shims I did not have any I can tell you that the lock nuts that hold your 4 gears on to the shafts the washers behind the nuts are 8mmx 1.5mm if that is too much I comprimised I took a teflon washer and sanded down to 1mm or you could try loosening both lock screws on that layshaft and see if you can get enough movement to take up the play I almost got it by doing that, I called fastenal I deal with them all the time and he could not even find me 8mm shims maybe someone else on here knows, good luck I had a bitch trying to get it perfect

You local hardware store should have them.

As long as the shim is 1mm thick and the outside diameter is the same, you'll be fine. Put the shim under the bearing. Not under the pinion.
