I've used the hardened steel washers from our suppliers for more years than I can remember. Never had any sort of problem with them. My only issue is that I often find they're re-usable so when I buy a king pin kit the supplied washers go into my stock. I recall that I had that many at one point that when one of the suppliers was down on stock, I let him have some of my excess back to help him along!
Is it just me or is there a bit of 're-inventing of the wheel' going on at the moment?
