Disc Brake shims necessary?


Recommended Posts

I was changing the brake pads on my 280ZX and they don't have the brake pad shims shown in the Hayne's manual. Are they critical for the performance and safety of the brake system, or just used to stop squeeling (which I can tolerate for at least a while)? I've searched on here and didn't find a conclusive answer. If worse comes to worse, I have a parts car I can pull them off of, but I'm in a bit of a time crunch right now.
