Thanks Bob,
The washers I took out (I think they are the original ones) are also in good
shape.
They are actually thicker than the news ones I bought (Glacier).
The car will be a daily driver, not a racer.
I think I will just install them and not pin them. I would like to use a
good quality washer.
What is the Wishbone Classics washer made of? How much is a std set?
