?found these on the front leaf spring mount

[74360duster]

anybody else ever had these on the front leaf spring mount? there were 3 of these behind each of the 4 mounting bolts through the frame. im guessing the rear axle may have not been aligned correctly. but measuring the wheelbase with the shims in the left side like before it actually makes a 1/4 in difference. so we are gonna leave them out. and it should make the lengths the same.

You are correct they are alignment shims. When you have the car aligned you might want to have the place that does it check the track of the rear also, as it can cause odd handling and wear your rear tires as well.

Some alignment shops will align with the thrust angle. When the rear axle is not straight with the front. They used them to make it all square. As in a
rectangle.

I just received a new set, ordered them from Mancini, I believe you can get them directly from AR Engineering or something like that.
