Cleveland Wheel Shims

I need to add some shims to the axles of my Fly Baby to reduce the
side-to-side
movement of my wheels (the axles aren't threaded at the end, the wheels
are held
on with a cross-bolt through a bushing).
I basically need some thin metal washers with a 1.5" inside diameter. I'm
suspecting the "Ring-Grease Seal" items on Cleveland 600x6 wheels is what
I'm
looking for. However, there are multiple part numbers for the same item
(153-00300, 153-00400, etc.). I'm suspecting these are differing
thickness...anybody got a table that shows the thickness by part number?
You might check with a local bearing supplier. I think flat races for
Torrington needle roller thrust bearings might work for you. They are pretty
reasonable as I recall and very tough. I think they come in .030, .060, .090
and .120 thickness for most diameters. You might be able to find them
locally this afternoon.
