I need to find thinner keyed front axle washers for Jill's Midget. The originals are about .093" or 3/32". If it's not clear what I'm looking for, I mean the washers with a tab on the ID to key into

If you can come up with a Dorman part number I'll see what I can find. We have a local mom and pop parts house that caries Dorman. If you can't find a part number, dimensions will do. Peace, Pat Thu

You mean like this? http://www.etrailer.com/pc-S~165863.htm "Tang-type spindle washer" is all I know to call them by, but even that isn't a sure thing. A quick Google for "spindle washer" turned up

Sure - when I used to have access to one I could do that easily. And if I need to, I still might, but now I'd have to pay for the service, and I bet I could buy a hundred washers out of a drawer at

Funny - I searched Dorman's site Sunday night and found nothing... Anyway, that tells me that 3/32 is just about as thin as they're usually made. Timken just merrily advises to repplace the original

I did indeed, tho it was mostly intended as a rhetorical question. <g> Personally, I'd just use a hardened flat washer and let it go at that. With the inner race clamped tightly between the nut and

Or just some 400 grit and a flat plate - ceramic tiles are great for this kind of thing. Use a "figure 8" motion and measure often. _______________________________________________ Support Team.Net h

Interesting. I remember doing this conversion on our Morris Minor (same front axle setup) and not running into any dimensional problems... I ultimately left the spacer out. I can believe that there

I'll do this to take off a thousandth or two on a thrust washer, and in fact that's how I turned decent flat washers into relatively true-thickness shims for the bearings, but to take off .040" or s

It's not as if Timken makes these bearings specifically for this application. They're just what's closest. I'm sure they'd be less than thrilled at the sales volume for BMC car conversions. Heck - I'

You can take off more with coarse grit and then finish with fine. It will go rather quickly. You won't get uniform thickness with a file, mostly because there's no good way to hold such a thin piece

Maybe if you order new washers from Moss they will be made in China which means thinner and/or softer steel. . Mark _______________________________________________ Support Team.Net http://www.team.n

Yup - that's what I initially was going to do, and what I'll probably do. I just couldn't believe it would be so difficult to buy tabbed axle washers from stock in any FLAPS. Karl ___________________
