Might be a good idea. I have just spent an hour trying to adjust out the problem, just on the RA drive. Tightening the lock bolts tilts the motor back, the wedge is mainly serving as a belt tensioned and was backed right off on my drive. With the motor tilting, the sprocket tilts. So shimming the motor carrier might work. I did manage to move the sprocket further out on the shaft slightly, which decreased the overhang of the belt when slewing, what can j hse as shim material, it has to be pretty thin?
