Yeah it's to shim up the diffs on the outdrives to eliminate play, it helps prolong the life of the crown & pinion gears

I've run a near enough standard 44.1 for the past few years Rob, barring a few tuning options the only other thing I did straight away was replace the diff & thrust balls with ceramic.

Like Danny has said, the Jconcepts bellcrank set makes a difference and eliminates a lot of the play in the steering.
