i am putting a set of lakewood struts on my car and they came with six shims..i figured three per side is what it needed,the question is do i double up on spacers on the front or back of where it mounts to the spindle??

Your car looks like it came straight from Mexico.

You may not have to use all 6 shims. I only used 4; two on each side.

I just put one on each side of the spindle.
