I set many tubs in before ,but I want to set a steel tub in a basement and the floor is way way off .What is the best way to shim it . The last tub was off a little i shimmed with wood ,it was a American cast, and stated no structlite .This tub did not state that . thanks

I'm a carp. that plumbs. You didn't give us much info,so here is how I would handle it.
I would rip tapered 2x4s from nothing to level for the outside skirt. Screw a 1x4 against the wall. There's a lot missing here,but You didn't give Us much!

Pour a mud bed under it, set it level and then, when the mortar dries remove the tub carefully and place the ledgers, replace the tub.
