I've been wanting a 4.67 ever since I knew it was available, but I don't know anything about installing a final drive. What is all this shim nonsense?

Are ya'll saying that if you were to only buy a final drive you wouldn't be able to install it?

I figured it would come with everything needed. Is it because they're older FDs that weren't necessarily designed for our cars? Maybe even universal ones?
