Soda cans make great shims. You can cut with regular scissors and
fold to make it thicker.<br>

Thought you were talking about inside the wiper box. Lots of
answers, as noted you don't need something to shim around the
whole thing just jam in one one side should make it tight
enough. Feeler guage stock, aluminum can, thin sheet brass
(available at hobby lobby or hobby Towne). Alternative would
be adhesives, small hole and dowel or set screw (if you have
sacrificial wiper arms too.</div>

<div>worst case you should not have to shim all the

dirty sacrifice.... local auto parts store ... buy
a set of blade feeler <br>
gauges. The thinner gauges should make perfectly
selectable shim stock <br>
to jam the blades in place. They should be thin
enough to cut with a <br>

the diameter of the knurled portion of my driver

there some type of shim stock/adhesive combination
I could wrap around the knurled wheel on the wheel
