JT, do you have a service manual?  It is in the manual with a great description and way quicker than posting pictures and asking here.  The service manual is one of the best investments you can make if you intend on doing any of your own work.  BTW, you do have it right.

   did you measure your comp stack height to see if you needed to add a spacer or two?
Now would of been the perfect time to check.

Sorry for all the questions. But I'm thankful to the guys here that have helped me thru.....

Stack height? Haha. I probably should get a set ice manual.

Here's a thread that you won't find in the service manual that should explain what No Cents and Workinman are referring to.  The dealer should have the shims if you need any.
