93 manual front hub thin washers??

[cracker jack]

I did a search and couldn't find any info.

93 Ranger 4x4 with manual locking front warn hubs (D35). I took them apart to clean and re-grease everything and they look really good except for the so called "thin washer" used to separate the copper engage cog with the splined gear. It's a ridiculously thin washer that no one sells and Warn doesn't sell individual parts.

Anyone, know where to find these or an alternative replacement? (preferably in Canada).

"Ridiculously thin washer"?

Would a shim work?

I've tried just about everything I can get my hands on that is the right diameter but everything is just a little too thick. This thing is as thin as an aluminum can but obviously made from steel. I wish warn would sell replacement parts.

What is the I.D. and O.D. you need? Maybe a pinion shim could work... they're available as thin as 0.003".
