Easily Auto Body Alignment Shim Kit — 40‑Piece 1/16 & 1/8 in Shims with 3/8″ & 1/2″ Slots, Zinc‑Plated

Easily's 40-piece auto body alignment shim kit is a zinc-plated steel assortment of 1/16" and 1/8" shims with 3/8" and 1/2" slots designed to precisely space and align fenders, doors and suspension linkages.

This kit gathers the most useful thin-shim sizes into one compact set so you can quickly dial in panel gaps, seat brackets or minor suspension adjustments without fabricating spacers. Each shim is stamped from zinc-plated steel for strength and rust resistance, and the transparent storage box keeps sizes sorted for fast access during repair or restoration work.

How do these shims help when aligning fenders and doors?

Thin shims let you incrementally change how panels sit against one another, correcting uneven gaps and reducing rubbing. Using a small shim behind a hinge or mount can move a panel by fractions of an inch without disassembly or welding.

• Provides fine adjustments in 1/16" and 1/8" thicknesses
• Slots suit common bolt diameters: 3/8" and 1/2"
• Zinc plating helps prevent corrosion at contact points
• Packaged by size for quick selection on the job

What are the kit contents and material properties?

The set contains 40 shims across four size/slot combinations: 3/8" slot at 1/16" and 1/8" thickness, and 1/2" slot at the same two thicknesses. All pieces are cut from steel and zinc plated to resist rust while retaining rigidity for repeated use.

• 10 × 3/8" slot, 1/16" thick
• 10 × 3/8" slot, 1/8" thick
• 10 × 1/2" slot, 1/16" thick
• 10 × 1/2" slot, 1/8" thick

Which automotive jobs are these shims suitable for?

They are multi-purpose alignment shims for body and chassis work: fine-tuning hinge positions, equalizing panel gaps, and minor adjustments to suspension linkages where shims are permitted. They’re intended for mechanical alignment tasks rather than structural repairs.

• Door and fender gap correction without cutting or welding
• Hinge and latch positioning adjustments
• Minor spacer use for control arms or bracket alignment
• Useful for restorations, collision touch-ups, and custom fitment

How is the kit organized and stored on the workbench?

The shims arrive sorted in a durable, transparent plastic box with a label so you can identify sizes at a glance. Organized storage prevents small parts from getting lost and speeds up workflow during busy repair sessions.

• Clear compartmented box holds all 40 pieces by size
• Compact footprint fits in tool cabinets or shop drawers
• Labeling makes selection fast under bright or dim lighting
• Box protects shims from surface damage and contaminants
