Pinion Angle Shims...Need Help!

I have a 93 F-150. It was lowered when i got it. I have been driving it for several years and have always noticed a shudder/shaking at certain speeds. I did some researching online and discovered that it could be my pinion angle. I looked under my truck and noticed that my differential is angled up towards the bottom of my truck bed. I'm trying to find some shims online to put under the leaf springs, but I'm not having much luck. I called around everywhere locally and no one carries them or makes them. So before i spend money online i wanted to see if someone could point me in the right direction. I found one article and a couple of links that I was looking at, but I'm not sure on what width of shim i need or if there is a center bolt, etc...

Does anyone know of a place they would recommend to buy shims from? Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!
