Re: Restoring Rusty
then I decided to go back and shim the hangers as the new ones are 1/4 wider than the stock ones, (in the pick it looks like maybe an 1/8th but that's because the bracket was bent in from bolting it in too much), so a quick trip to Home Depot to get some 1/2 grade 8 washers, bought 9 but 3 on either side seemed to do the trick
the distance from the frame to the inside of the hanger appeared to be the same between the old and new hangers, so I only shimmed the outside
