This invention is directed to guide pads that can be adjusted to a desired distance from the guide arm while mounted on the guide arm. The pad is machined so that the surface is level. The pad is then mounted on the guide arm and leveled using an adjustable level means to achieve the desired distance of the pad from the guide arm. By having the adjustable leveling means to adjust the guide pad, the desired distance of the pad from the guide arm can be can be maintained without shimming and machining the pad after the pad is mounted on the guide arm. With the use of an adjustable leveling means, materials harder than Babbitt can be used and readjusted to the desired distance without machining the pad. If the pad becomes so worn that the leveling means cannot adjust the pad to the desired distance from the guide arm, the pad can be removed and machined. Afterwards the machined pad can be mounted on the guide arm and leveled to the proper distance.
