Thickness of shim pack is determined by the variance of manufacturing tolerances when machining the flat mounting surface of the gripper bar. You don't mention anything about taking the shim packs out, and why. Did you mix up the individual shims and don't know how they were grouped? Are you replacing the gripper bars with Chinese versions? As I'd mentioned previously, pad height of delivery gripper bars, at transfer point to impression cylinder, should be about the same relative height as the impression cylinder gripper pads. If you have no clue as to how to go about this, and your shim packs are all mixed up from original positions, separate the thicknesses and divide them up evenly to get about the same thickness at all four mounting points. These are not as critical in placement as are the shim packs on a pincer bar.
