What did you get for end play when you shimed the two adjustable shafts.

I got one down to almost zero (by removing almost all the shims) and the other was around .015". I was worried about the amount of shims I took out, but I read elsewhere others have done the same. The service manual says under .015 or as close to zero as possible, so I'm not sure why the shims were ever there to begin with.
