   Well, I went ahead and ordered from Moss.? I did a cursory check of the 
interwebs didn't turn up anything of those dimensions here: 
https://www.mcmaster.com/#standard-washers/=15uvd84 and here: 
http://www.keybellevilles.com/bellevilles/sampleCatalog.php?gclid=CMCHjPHOuNECFQGRfgodVAoFuA
 and others, and I need to get this car back together before I start losing the 
little bits.?? FWIW, SC Parts and AH Spares have them at a more reasonable 
price--esp. with the current exchange rate--but with VAT and shipping it's not 
a massive savings.
   My thanks to Olin, Bob and others who responded; if I come across these in 
this size I'll make a note for future reference.? Now, at least, I know what 
they're for and how to stack them. Bob

 Bob,

I figured height of the spring was also important, so I put 2 together and 
measured the height with calipers
Height of 2 washers: 0.100 inches
Height of 1 washer: 0.050 inches
Thickness of washer: 0.025 inches
Checking the previous diameter dimensions with a caliper, I get:
 
ID: 1.057 inches
OD: 1.5 inches

I suspect that the ID is originally spec'd to be 1-1/16" but because of the 
slight "spring", the diameter is slightly less.  Good luck

I just pulled mine out of a steering box I am rebuilding, and yes there are 6 
positioned as such: ()()() Where only the outer edges touch.  The dimensions 
are as follows:

ID: 1-1/16
OD: 1-1/2
Pictures of the measurements are attached for verification purposes.

The washers were loose on the shaft, but I think the closer tolerance is going 
to be on the OD side.
