Ford used a Paper/Cardboard Shim Spacer on the 1980-97 F-Series and Broncos where the top of the front fenders bolt to the cab. We've found the original spacers on most trucks to be falling apart or missing altogether. This can cause many issues, including but not limited to poor body panel alignment and/or a loud "popping or clunking noi

Shims the right product.
Once I saw your video about the garbage shims ford used and of the hard popping in situations. It came clear I was not doing things wrong . I rebuilt my front joints and bushings, shocks and so on. It needed it . Nearly 400,000 on it. Shims are in think they are great. Thanks

Excursion
These aren't technically made for the Excursion but they worked! No more horrific "pop" when I drive on uneven ground. Cheap fix to a horrible sound.
