Default newer tf2 kits

i know most of u guys have had this kit for a long time. i've been reading all the posts about the horror stories & inherent problems with this kit. it almost swayed me to keep looking but my love for these trucks in 1.1 made me bite the bullet. she got here today & upon inspection, i already see 2 improvements that have been made by rc 4wd. people have mentioned there not being enough threads in the shift collar on the trans. & have to buy the new, deeper version. my kit came with it. some people talk about the screws that go thru the housing up towards the springs being to short & stripping out. this kit came with bolts long enough to reach all the way through & use a nylon nut. i did still notice some in & out play on the pinions though. u would think shimming the pinion in towards the ring gear would help, but in my case, pushing it in makes the gears crunchy. by pulling it out, about the width of the e-clip holding the pinion, it smoothes out nicely. my question is, where do i find shims small enough to go between the e-clip & outer pinion bearing?
