Looking for shop to correct LSD install Metro NY

I am in the Long Island NY area. I have a 1990 240SX w/ABS and an AST / Carbonetics type 2 LDS installed. My LSD growls when I back off the gas. It has been diagnosed as a poorly shimmed unit. I cannot seem to find the right mechanic to fix the problem or get a Shim Kit for this car. This is my daily driver so my plan was to schedule an appointment, have the shop get the shims, go in at 9AM, and finish at 2PM. No such luck. Nissan sells them by the piece and that would mean a lay-up of over a week. Besides the pinion shims (front back adjustment) I think I might need a set for each axle (side to Side). Can anyone help with the inner and outer circumferences of the shims so maybe I can have them made up? Can someone recommend a good shop in Metro NY area?

I am afraid that at the rate I am going the unit will be destroyed if not fixed soon.
