Very much used it for the shim I had to replace. Very much makes to job
of changing a shim very easy!
Which reminds me, new tools I picked up for the job
- micrometer
- small magetic pickup tool
- feeler guages, down to .05 (IIRC)

I'll see what I can do, but considering you have about 1-2 mm of contact
between the bucket and the leg, I don't know if I would rely on someone
elses measurements. I am fairly cheap, but honestly, give Steve @ JL a
call and pick up a set that you know will fit. I think it was 30 or 40
bucks, way too much for a tool, but on the other hand I am thinking
replacing a nicked bucket on you head would be a whole lot more than that.
YMMV, and I have make my share of tools over the years. IMNSHO.
