[Healeys] Belleville washers in BN2 steering box

[Bob Spidell]

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:

and here:

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.
