Upper Wishbone Shims
Getting my ducks in a row to do some front end work and find only one shim on either side of the wishbones.
I’m not having any luck finding replacement sets doing internet searches.
Where can I buy replacements? New or used makes no difference to me.

Friend they are available. See part# after #5 in attachment. In case you didn't know: Thick is 1.6mm thick; Thin is 0.9mm. The bolt is 5/8 inch thick. Plain old washers are often a useful thickness (IOW if the fender washer is 2.4mm thick = same as 1thin + 1thick stacked).
In fact it came in handy for me, I'm using a fender washer or 2 right now.
Factory spec is: driver side NAmerica: 2 thick 1 thin forward, 1 thin rearward. Same layout swap forward and rearward for other side.
Just Google the part # plenty of choices.

Terry's Jag has them and is where I sourced them from a couple months ago. These are the links to the parts on their website: Thick shim; and Thin shim.
The price for what are essentially washers is eye-watering.
As a bonus, here's a link to the entire assembly.

I sure appreciate the info!
They are pretty expensive for washers, but I found some for $1.57 on eBay - the $50.95 shipping from Australia is making me think a trip to Tractor Supply with a micrometer is in my near future.
THANK YOU!
