Default R+P install kits

Ryan & Brent,

A while back I placed and order for a 2 sets of 5.38 gears, lockers, install kits and carriers. I got them in and am very pleased with them. My only problem is when I used the carrier shims from the GG install kits, they were a larger OD diameter than the carrier bearings. I had to remove the bearings with a bearing puller and the shims were damaged (the bearings in the kit and my setup bearings were a tad off in height causing the issue, no big deal though).

I'm not looking for replacement ones or anything like that. I just wanted to make a suggestion that maybe you folks could look into getting a second brand of install kits from Ratech or someone, or even just a shim kit that is the proper size OD diameter for the carrier bearings.

Thanks
