Been mystified by the excess rear hub end play on my 28. After tearing it apart and studying it for quite a while, I discovered that the two Bakelite washers (3983-23) are missing. I assume they act as a buffer between the two steel thrust washers, one stationary and one turning with the hub? Is there a better material too make these out of and what is the thickness of them? Any help would be appreciated.

There are also small brass shim washers that fit between a shoulder on the axle and the non threaded inner thrust race. These were available in different sizes and were used to adjust end play.
