1020 Control Arm Shaft Leak

Howdy, I'm working on my 1020 going through and fixing the various leaks. I have searched and read several of the post about fixing the o-rings/seals on the draft control arms, but have one question. I know that once you replace the seals that any play needs to be shimmed out on the shaft. On the online parts diagram there are thrust washers (part 19) that I assume were originally used to do this, but there are no part numbers for them listed anymore. I haven't torn it apart yet but there is about a 1/2" of sideways play in the shaft. What should I use to shim this out? I am replacing the shaft, and I haven't measured to see if the original shaft is the same length as the new one. I could ream out a couple of washers to fit, but is there something better?

Thanks
 


Below is the part # & spec's for the thrust washers

I will add that I found the correct size thrust washers at Tractor Supply. They might have called them shims or bushings instead but they fit perfect.
