>Yeah it seems that some of those shims have been fixing the issues, but they were complaining about having to buy bulk packs at $25 just to get one or two shims and one guy was talking about sending them out to people or something just to help.
NTA but a protip that I thought was completely useless until now, feeler gauge sets (the ones that fan out) are literally just a shim assortment and a Harbor Freight feeler gauge is $5. They went on sale for $3/ea in 2021 according to a coupon; not sure how often they go on sale. Alternatively if someone wants to make shims available they're probably best off getting a sheet to make shims out of but I'm personally not sure how you cut that without putting a burr on the edge or making the edge all wavy or kinking it. Sheetmetal work is something else.
