There are 0 and 2 degree shims for ride height and castor adjustment (use two 2 deg shims for 4 deg). For camber adjustments you use header card or shim stock under the inside or outside of the block.
The 0, 5 and 10 degree blocks on the new style front end change the amount of reactive caster, the basic caster setting is made with the white hinge pin shims.
