It looks to me that the thrust bearing pulls the center of the spring (diaphragm) (away from the flywheel) to release the clutch? The reverse of "normal" If so, then you are still getting full spring pressure, but without the shims, there possibly won't be enough travel at the thrust bearing to properly release.
