My apologies... I should have said that the shims I added was to clear the servo arms from rubbing the sides of the ballcups when the servo it at the end point for right side steering.

Perhaps you're right. I will take the shims out as it makes the linkage closer to the front belt. Don't see the need of the shims since I'm using shorter linkage now which does not make the steering servo travel far at the end point for right side steering which makes rubbing the servo horn with the ballcup linkage possible.
