Installing shims in GN stock servor....how to???

[PaulRV6]

I need to artificilly make the pin longer to reduce the servo movement on the band. What kind of washer and where do they get installed? I thought I read where they go btw the inner and outer piston but can't figure how this makes the pin longer to reduce the clearance. Thanks

No one knows????? I don't believe it!!!!

Ok, if no one knows then my other option is to buy a longer pin but which one is it. I have a 3 groove pin so do I buy a no groove or a 2 groove pin? That is what I am wondering?

remove the pin assembly from the servo , slide off the the piston plate and slide a shim (washer) up against the eclip , put the plate back on and install another shim (washer) onto the shaft

the washer shims looks like a banjo washer but are little larger
they are about .030" ea and fit the pin shaft close and large enough that it wont fit into the e-clip recess .

Ok, very good. Are these washers hardware type stuff or transmission specialty shop pieces. Thanks pacecarta.
