SHIM - WEAR PAD (Toyota TY00591-12442-81)

TY00591-12442-81: A worn shim can allow excessive clearance in a wear-pad assembly, leading to accelerated component wear. The shim is a thin, precision-ground spacer used to adjust the gap between sliding surfaces. This aftermarket replacement part references the Toyota catalog number TY00591-12442-81. Its plain mechanical function is to occupy space and maintain a consistent fit between mating parts. Without proper shim thickness, the wear pad may shift under load, causing metal-on-metal contact and eventual failure. Keeping the shim in sound condition helps preserve alignment and reduce vibration during operation. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748. The item ships at approximately 0.05 pounds.
