Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the TO 00591-37899-81 1.5 mm shim used for?
A: The TO 00591-37899-81 is a precision shim used to adjust spacing, alignment, or clearance between components in Toyota lift truck assemblies. Shims are critical for proper bearing fit, wheel alignment, and load distribution.
Q: What equipment does this 1.5 mm shim fit?
A: This shim is designed for Toyota electric pallet jacks and light-duty lift trucks from the 1990s to early 2000s. Exact application depends on the assembly being adjusted. Contact us with your model number and serial range to confirm this shim is correct for your equipment.
Q: What material is the TO 00591-37899-81 shim made from?
A: The 1.5 mm shim is typically made from hardened steel or stainless steel to resist deformation and corrosion. The material thickness of 1.5 mm is precision-manufactured to maintain tolerances required for proper component fit and alignment.
Q: Why would a shim need replacement?
A: Shims can wear, compress, become lost during maintenance, or require replacement when reassembling components. Loss of a shim creates excessive clearance, leading to misalignment, increased bearing wear, and potential component damage.
Q: How many shims might I need?
A: Shim quantity depends on the specific assembly adjustment required. Some assemblies use a single shim, others use multiple shims stacked to achieve the correct total spacing. Consult your equipment manual or contact us with your model details for the required quantity.
