If your planning on keeping the vehicle for some time, you may do
well to label, and keep that shim, and note its original location.
If you need to replace those bearings one day due to wear and tear, or damage, you can fit a new bearing, and refit the original shim to give you the correct prelaod.
If you fit new bearings, and dont fit the original shim back in with it, you may be out of spec for prelaod.
Just a thought, glad you got it sorted.
