Simple little washer giving me grief. I'm having a frustrating time buying the correct spindle nut washers for my 1970 disc brake Cuda. 
Purchased some Dorman 618-061 as recommended from a website. Despite not looking right they did not fit. the inner diameter was a smidge too small too slide on. Dorman website recommends 618-021 but its inside diameter is even smaller. Now I'm being directed by a third party to 618-005 which looks possible but Dorman site says this will NOT fit.
Before I purchase another set of 618-005, does anyone on the forum know off the top of their head if this is correct or should look for another part number?

Why not take a Dremel to the part that is just a little small?

Yes, I was considering buying an OEM washer as part of a kit online as a backup plan.
But just purchased Dorman 618-005 for a comparison and fit check. Although the outside diameter is a fraction larger than OEM, the fit and function were perfect. I'll go with this for time being.
Thanks for all the input.
