Correct. Got a pair from Tom Hall’s dwindling stash. 
Thanks for all the input.

As best I can tell he is asking for the shims at the outer end of the AXLE bearing, not the pinion or carrier shims that would be readily available. Given the unique hubs on the rear of the Tiger I doubt most 4X4 or other Dana 44 shops would carry the shims. On the stock set up there is I believe roughly a .004 end play that the two axles and a short center piece in the differential need.

    Are you looking for carrier or pinion shim kits?  Both are listed and available at Summit Racing and several other sources. I use the Yukon brand components and recommend them.  
  Check out this page from Summit Racing https://www.summitracing.com/parts/yga-55010

   Having a Truetrac installed and everything is ready for reassembly. 
  The gentleman doing the work needs a 0.003" and a 0.005" shim. 
  Tom Hall has some 0.005s and will be sending that one. 
  Bill Martin has some shims but, as he is presently madly preparing two Tigers for shows in Monterey, is not sure when he will have time to check. 
  Any other sources out there?  Would be more than happy to end up with extra at this point.  Leaving town in about a week & a half and would like to pick up the rear end before I leave. 
  If not ... oh well. 
  Thanks, in advance, for any leads.
