Help bring the rear wheel alignment of your classic Corvette back within specification with the Dorman - OE Solutions Alignment Shim, part number 533-114. It is a direct-fit replacement for the rear alignment position on the 1963-1982 Chevrolet Corvette, so you can swap out original shims that are missing, damaged or corroded during suspension service.
Alignment shims are thin spacers that sit between suspension components. Adding or removing shims changes a component's position, which lets a technician set the alignment angles. This shim is cataloged for the rear of the vehicle on the listed applications.
- Direct replacement: Designed to fit and perform like the original equipment on the listed vehicles.
- Reliable fit: Precision-engineered to match the design and dimensions of the original components.
- Durable construction: Made to strict standards from sturdy, safe materials.
- Rigorously tested: Thorough quality-control checks are aimed at long service life.
A rear alignment shim may need replacing if you see uneven or rapid rear tire wear, if the alignment will not stay within specification, or if shims turn up missing or corroded during inspection. Other parts can cause these same signs, so have the suspension inspected and the alignment checked before replacing parts. After installation, have the rear alignment set to the vehicle's specification.
