thrust washer?

Hi folks.
I have a question about this 68 Sprite steering/suspension I'm working on. The
shop manual shows a thrust washer between the shock trunnion
and the swivel axle, but on disassembly there was none. No shims either. After
a test fit of the cleaned parts I have over 1/16 inch vertical movement
of the axle on the king pin.
So, how much movement should I have and where can I get a thrust washer and
shims? I suppose I could make one if I knew the correct thickness.

Thanks,
John
