D 60 death wobble, what size washer?

[white-rhyno]

Ok, I searched.
What is the size of that washer you put under the cap? I need to start saving this info. Never thought i get a d60 at the time i read it........ Or should i just not be lazy and pull the arm off and drive to the hardware store? Another question, can a guy stack two on each side?? This is only temp till i can get some money together to rebuild it.
Thanks

Home Depot,

Look for 1/2" fender washers. They have a 1/2" hole (duh...) and are 2" in diameter and 1/16" thick. I used three washers per side and death wobble is gone...even without a stabilizer. I run the stabilizer anyways, but I did check it without.

FWIW I had horrible DW...couldn't drive the truck over 25 mph before I put the washers in.

Where do you put the washers?

Did you put new king pin springs and bushings in the D60 too...or just add the washers to the old springs/bushing? /forums/images/graemlins/thinking.gif
Thanks!

Same springs and bushings...just added the washers. The bushings looked new and the springs looked like springs /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif The D60 I bought only had 35,000 miles on it (out of a M1008)
