I don't know how common this is, but I have similar differences between the front and rear shim pack on both sides on my '64.
My RH side shims are close to yours. I have one 1/32 inch shim at the front, and three 1/8 shims plus one 1/32 shim at the rear.
In my case the front/rear shim difference may be greater than 'normal' because with power steering and radial tyres I like to have a bit more positive caster than stock. To increase positive caster you remove shims from the front and add shims to the rear.

Agree, and I have mine set like that too. It doesn't look too clever, but adding the caster sure makes a big difference to the steering stability and feel/weight, especially at speed.
Mad4, is the shimming the same on the other A-arm?
Incidentally, I recall a post on here about fitting the Borgeson steering conversion and I think I'm right in saying that the instructions advised increasing caster by slotting the holes in the spindle. I'm not sure I fancy doing that for fear of weakening it. Otherwise that would be a good solution if there was more metal in that area.
You can also get "offset" spindles - sounds like the answer - but it's an offset of both ends so no help. Apparently these are used when the suspension turrets have sagged out of position and help restore correct camber(??).
