Dearborn 14-15 repair

I have a 14-15 i would like to fix up and I have a few question the manual hasn’t answered for me.

The ledger plates are all dull so I am replacing the guards. I just bought one guard at TSC and put it on to insure it was the right type and i noticed it appeared to point down 3/4 inch lower than all the rest. Holding a piece of steel to it i found the the new one was parallel to the bar and all the rest were tipped up. Maybe that is why it has stacks of shims under the wear plates and hold downs. Are the guards supposed to be parallel with the cutter bar?

On the inside most part of the cutter bar, where slides in and out of the inner shoe it appears there should be a ledger plate. I don’t see one in the manual.

On the outer shoe there is a one sided ledger plate, I haven’t been able to find one like that for sale, does it come with the ledger plate kit from new holland?
