I need to add some shims to the axles of my Fly Baby to reduce the side-to-side

The 153-xxxxx Ring-Grease Seal is designed to back up the wheel
bearing. In effect it is a cupped washer. It might serve for what you
want if you grind the rubber cup off of the flat washer it is bonded
to. It is not a typical axle spacer though.
