Pic of main gear weldment shim on RV-8A needed

I would appreciate any pics of the shim used on the main gear weldment, between the weldment and F804A (spar carry thru). I cannot get a clear picture of what it should look like from the plans (DWG 30A, Section R-R-)

Thanks,

Hello VAF World! Revisiting an old thread - this issue has me scratching my head as the drawings 30A-8, 67A-8 have multiple components simultaneously depicted by hidden lines making it difficult for me to determine the desired shim outline. The bulkhead appears to be the same thickness as the lip on the weldment, so does the red circle capture the entire shimmed area or am I missing something here? Comments welcome, thanks!
