More Antisquat = less shims. Its roughly that no shims = 5 degrees, and every .030" (.76 mm) is a degree. That makes .150" (3.81 funny units ) 0 degrees of antisquat.

Mark, I've got the older ones but they should be marked what antisquat they relate to by how many holes/notches they have in them

Cheers for the Help Dan and Paul, I have not opened the packet to have a look yet to see if they are marked up, i am sure they must be.

Is this a common adjustment to make on the x6 after shocks,spring/oils??

I've always been amazed that you proud Brits were so cowed by the French that you gave up your wonderful system of measurement. I think it's fun working with what we still call the "English" system.

And what did you get for your trouble? Not even a bottle of wine. Next you'll convert to the Euro...

Looking at the state of the pound, i dont think it will be too long either.

We might as well start wearing clogs, lederhosen,and hanging onions round our necks now
