[TR] 59 TR3A caliper shims

[Alan Salvatore]

If the caliper isn't centered on the rotor, then they are needed.  I 
recently had to order some shims from TRF because I was rebuilding the front 
suspension on a TR6 and the used caliper I got , needed to be shimmed to 
allow the new brake pads to fit over the rotor.
I never had to do it before;  but this was a wreck and I was piecing 
together parts from different cars.
