I have never found one, spent 2 years looking, gave up and used a manual transmission shim. Tim

I'm looking too. I don't suppose anyone has a photo of the parts do they - it would help me a lot.

I purchased a couple of these washers from Univair in Denver a couple of months ago.

I looked for some also with no luck. On one of the axles now is a flat washer with the small tab braised on. Someone before me made it, I didn't. That one mics at about 1.350" OD - .775" ID. The added tab is .200"W x .125"H with its two external corners ground off.

Just looked at Univair's website...they list Taylorcraft p/n A-500 axle washers in stock for $1.48.

It is an automotive axle washer. Just go to NAPA or other good parts store and you can find it. I may have a couple extra used ones if someone is desperate.

Indeed one does.

Re: need axle washer

Thanks Rob, I have just picked up a couple of axle washers of the right bore. I don't suppose you have a picture of the inner/outer grease seals do you?

Skybound has the grease shields. They don't have the washers, though. I second the NAPA suggestion.

Re: need axle washer

I have lots of new outers, but no inners.

Sorry, Colin I don't. I have an inner shield at home, but I'm in Utah at the moment, so it's a bit far to nip back and grab a photo!
