Thanks alldodge. I've pulled the hingepins. There's a little slop in the bushings, but not terrible. I have misplaced my mike, so don't have an exact measurement, but I'd say the washers are on order 10 to 20 thousandths. If anyone knows what thickness they are supposed to be, please holler. I'll keep checking to see if I can find some reference to thickness or play.Don't know of any spec, it just should not have side play. Maybe @Bt Doctur will have a better answer
Thanks, but it looks like it's actually item 11. No thickness is given on that item that I can see. I'm going to order some anyway, maybe the pins too. It's only a few bucks.Looked up a drive and its showing .105 thickness
Item 13
