Cam Follower shims

Post by Stinkwheel »

Hello all,

Im looking to get hold of a few shims suitable for the XUD engines, nice to have a few spare sizes kicking about you know, anyone know where is best to get hold of a few? Or even have a few kicking about they no longer need?

I would imagine Citroen may be able to supply new ones, although I don't know what the cost would be.

I bought a couple a few years ago and they were around £4 each! I'm afraid I don't really have enough to sell a quantity, but if you need the odd one I can try and help out.

Do you have an engine rebuilders near by?

I used to get one off shims from Birkenhead Engine Centre which is where i also usually went for head sets. They had a huge box with them all arranged by size and where pocket change each.
