When shimming the lower joint, do so with the spring out. When you get it right, then refit the spring.
It's there as an anti-rattle device only, it does not affect the ball to socket clearance.

I did mine the other day. Was worried as it was real tight and notchy bur when I added another shim it was free and easy. Thought they are meant to be tight but smooth. I am 90 % sure that made no sense.

It's important to do these bearings right or they won't last at all.
