I need oversize thrust washers for my 74 TR6 crank -- I measure
.013" end float, and want to drop it down to about .003". 

I cannot find the spec for a standard thrust washer -- mine
appear worn, and measure .0915" and .0925".  Does anybody know
what a new standard thrust washer measures? 

When ordering oversize, say .005, is this the combined total
width added, or is each washer .005 oversize?

I am assuming one can use thrust washers of different sizes on
either side to get the clearance needed.

Victoria Brit does not appear to have oversize, TRF is not
answering the phone and Moss is out of the .005", but it might be
too tight anyway if my original washers are worn down much.

Any help here would be appreciated.

regards,

doug
