Locking hub shim
Hey I'm rebuilding a 74 Ford F250 Highboy. I'm trying to find a 6 hole shim that is between the locking hub and the hub. It's a thin metal. Any help would be helpful. Thanks

That's actually what was used as a gasket. I don't think they're made anymore I've seen articles where people make their own out of gasket material. I've just used silicone for years and never seen a downside to it.

I believe this is the gasket you are thinking of. Silicone works great too.
