Am putting the up-rated stub axle kit on my TR2 with TR6 front suspension / disc brakes and find that I need nearly 0.030 in shim thickness to allow the disk / wheel to turn without too much effort.  The instructions say to start with 0.015 and then (usually) reduce to around 0.007 and then install the grease seal, inner bearing, spacer, shim pack, outer bearing, washer and nut torqued to 45–50 ‘#.  Anyone else finding they need to use considerably more in the way of shims than the instructions indicate?
