A typical woods BV shim stack would look something like this; assuming the BV is set flat:
Nut
Cup, edges facing towards shims or down in this case
Spring
Washer/sleeve
Piston valve
24.1 (4 ea) 24 mm X .1 mm thick there could be as many as 11 of these 24’s
22.1
20.1
18.1
16.1
14.1
11.1
Spacer , thicker than .10 usually
CC has another BV stack using .15 mm shims posted in his gallery.

Follow Inda's advise. It answers your question. No handholding permitted here. That's how you learn.Ryan wrote:can someone tell me how to arrange the ones i have or is this not possible. I will definately have to buy new shims because my second base vavle has no on it.

well since one of my base vavles is completly missing the vavle shims and i have to get the midvavles disabled i think im gonna send them to MX turner on georgiaoffroad.com . He said $40 plus shipping and he will set up my base vavles, buy the vavle shims i need and disable the mid vavles. Does this seem like a fair price and has anyone had work done by him??

Regarding does it sound like a good deal? If I was going to replace the mid-valve with a new checkplate set-up and install a Base Valve set-up with new shims it would cost me about $40 in shims and more if new suspension fluids were involved and I performed the work myself.
I don't know MX Tuner or the quality of their work but generally you get what you pay for. MX Tuner an uncle or relative??
