WTB Differential Spacers/Shims Hi I know some of you here work a lot on rear end rebuilds and such, and some shims must be left over from assembly. Instead of collecting dust sell em to me. I need a differential spacer+shims to achieve the following :
target value for is 0.2485(left) and 0.2340(right) total .4825
Need to finish car this weekend.
If you live around NYC, North/Central NJ I would pick em up.
In case you wonder why I need them visit here:

I still am unable to locate correct shims. If anyone has them please response, and I guess finishing the car this weekend is out of the question :-(
shims needed:
target value for is 0.2485(left) and 0.2340(right) total .4825
or
target value for is 0.2495(left) and 0.2330(right) total .4825

That is just my luck.
I just found out that only from factory the rear axles come with one piece shim. apparently during rebuild I need shim + spacer.
It is 95% possibility I am going to have to go to stealer tomorrow, as my last effort does any one have any of the following combination?
target value for is 0.2485(left) and 0.2340(right) total .4825
or
target value for is 0.2495(left) and 0.2330(right) total .4825
or
at least .2340 or .2330 shim + .006 or .007 shim respectively.
Thanks for all your responses.

I have a **** ton of these things, I really dont feel like measuring tomorrow but if you would be willing to wait I might could help you out. 
When preloading the carrier bearings, dont get obsessive, just get it slightly snug for used bearings and pretty snug for new bearings. I even, when I open up old 10 bolts, add a really thin shim on both sides to take up the slack of worn bearings. **** works like a charm.
