for sure, as the sparcer on the side puelley is plastic, i now use a 0.2mm shim to obtain a .1mm play on the shaft!

beware youll have to use shims before the cone so to obtain a perfect alingment on the pinions vs spurs, i use a 0.5mm thick shim and i also do the centax gap with 5x7 shims between the outer bearing and the thrust bearing so the edge of the 1st pinions never touches the thrust bearing collar!
