What he said! BL
BUT..its not wise to go straight to that depth, you should go .060 MAX at a time, I personally make .030 changes..
Every boat is different, you may end up in a tottally different location than what works on other TX's or Cp's. You have to find the set up.Also, keep the plate at the same angle as was with the old biting edge depth, so whatever shim you put under the shoe, add the same to the cradle, if you have turn buckles holding the rideplate youll have to do it with an angle finder.
