Swinging arm bearing shims

[Wellsy]

Hello all
Replacing the s/a bearings on my 3cl. Do the cupped inner shims face outwards or inwards? My guess is outwards . :

Do you mean....concave or convex face out?

My guess is 'inwards' - the inner dish towards the centre line, with the spacer suspended in the shims.

 

[redax5]

they face inwards and are there to support the ends of the spacer

Thanks for your replies. So the cupped shims face inwards like this  (  )
