Description
The manual for the G2SA makes no mention of shims, but my LDO kit came with two shims. If I install one of the shims onto the carrier shaft when assembling, as in the regular G2 manual, I lose all the front-to-back play in the shaft. When I install the drive gear seated fully to the rear as instructed, it is slightly to the rear of the filament path. If I leave the shim out, I have enough play to slide the shaft slightly forward so the drive gear aligns with the filament path after installing the gear in the rearward position. Am I supposed to leave the shim out on the G2SA? What's the second shim for? Does it make sense to place a shim directly behind the drive gear so it aligns with the filament path?
