    spindle nut washer help?

    did a search couldn't find a part number

    I went looking for one on rock auto but it is not the correct one as it doesn't contain that little nub on the inside of the washer.

    I went to ebay and it came up with:
    Error Page | eBay

    Dorman/AutoGrade 618-020 Spindle Nut Washer

    It looks like the correct one but I haven't been able to measure it. Should I take this as the correct one?
    Measurements are Notes:
    ID--16.2mm, Nib (Length X Width)--2.8mm X 2.8mm, OD--35.8mm, Thickness--2.4mm

    Also, the price seems steep for 1 washer. Has anyone had luck finding one at a parts store?

    Thanks

    If you order an axle you may get the nut included. I found this for reference:

    I presume that's what you are talking about.

      I meant to specify that its the rear washer that goes behind the spindle nut.
      I only need the washer as my rear left one got chewed up. Its just a washer with a little stub on the inside

            That looks like the correct washer and since the listing says it fits a Festiva it should be covered by ebay buyer protection so if it doesn't fit then you get a full refund.
            8 dollars is including shipping, and not horribly overpriced for a specialty washer. If you need one cheaper, you may try a pull a part yard.

              O'reilly auto parts carries Dorman products.

              Auto Zone is also good at cross referencing. It all depends on the individual behind the counter.

              Take the Dorman part number in with you...the bay pic looks like the correct part. A local auto parts would be faster and charge you less than $5. (most likely)

                If you have trouble locating one of these washers PM me. I have surplus Festy brake stuff kicking around still assembled and would imagine there would be a washer or two in that pile if I had to start digging.
                Older Festys use a stake nut on the rear spindle and 93s converted to a castle nut and cotter pin locking arrangement which I appreciate. If you can get your hands on a castle nut drilling a 1/8 inch hole through the 'ordinary steel' spindle for the cotter pin is no big deal with an electric drill.
                It may be that junked Rios or an Aspire could provide that or those parts for you.
