Quote: The end result is that they feel the U-joint should be able to take up the slack and we ended up having to shim the 2 drivers side bolts to get the input shaft closer to where it needs to be. Not 100% thrilled about that.
Can you mill the mounting surface of the box to correct the problem? Determine how much angle needs to be cut to bring it true? I would be more comfortable with that than a shim. If you have access to a mill you could sneak up on it, estimate based on the shim thickness, go halfway and test fit. Repeat until the tolerance is tolerable.
