So I've got myself alu plate and cut some spacers, but since I'm this kind of person who worries about everything (even that there is nothing to worry about) I've emailed whiteline about those stepped washers and I've got response:
"The stepped washers are a special item that we have made, they are 40x21x7.5 and profile stepped to fit into the same on the rear of the mounting bushes (so the step is same height as step in bush), they ARE required to be fitted as to clearance and support bush loads (especially under braking)." So is it me or this washer is there just to fill up gap between bush and arm??
Now step in bush is about 6.5mm so that leaves me with 1mm between bush and arm, so would 1mm flat washer between arm and bush be ok or would you say it has to be stepped??
Oh and it might be little bit steep but has anybody got any those washers and don't need them??
