[QUOTE="bruce_ventura, post: 906326, member: 34084"] I would use a steel straight edge (ruler) to confirm that the top and side surfaces are parallel between front and rear. If not, you may have to remove a lot of ring material during lapping. In that case, I would shim the front and/or rear using brass shim or beer can material to get them as close to parallel as possible. Then I would bed the bases, embedding the shims in bedding material. Then I would lap the rings. [/QUOTE]
