I am at this point with my carrier and find I have a small gap at the top of the coupling housings.
I have tried insalling an extra thin washer under the pump on each side and as Rob previously mentioned, this just stops one from fitting a split pin into the mount bolt.
I am going to install a set of (4) shim plates under the mount saddles to see if they bring the coupling into alignment.
I put a 0-1 g cramp on the salvaged shims that I previously mentioned. They are a nominal 1/8" (0.125") thick.
I am interested to hear from anyone who has heard of these in any publications and also from you Rob, about the training film.
