I got a package of six pinion shims and I believe there are two of each size, but I don't know the sizes. I don't have a dial caliper to measure, but my friend has one (he's a retired machinist). I want to find out the measurements of my original two shims and then get the measurements of these new ones before installing any on my pinion gear. I could probably go to Harbor Freight and pick up a tool, but I'd probably never use it again and I've never needed one in the past.

Update: Measured the new shims, two of each: .003", .005" and .010". My two original shims were: .016" and .021".
