front hub lower ball joint washers?
 
I am soon to be replacing the lower ball joint on the front hubs on my classic as the rubber is going on one of them. I also have the aluminium lower wishbone. Where these bolts go through the lower wishbone, on my last scoob I had quite a thick washer to stop the nut chewing up the aluminium. on my current classic, those washers seem to be missing.

anyone know where I can get them as they are proving hard to find. the guy I spoke to at importcarparts said they wernt even listed in his catalogue.

there should be a steel cone insert in the ali arm but not sure where you mean this washer is??

ahh crap, I think the steel cone insert is missing then. do you do them ?

Edit:-

spoke to importcarparts and they got a wishbone out of the packet to lok at and the hole in the wishbone that the bottom balljoint sits in is tapered, they said there was no insert??
