I am in the midst of converting my Inno from drums to 7.5" disc brakes, and in reading the Haynes Service & Repair Manual for 1969 - 2001, it calls for a "special washer that is required for fitting the driveshaft [to the swivel hub wheel bearings] on disc brake models. If necessary, make the washer from mild steel."
Specifically, this special washer is used in place of the split tapered collar (fitted between the driveshaft nut and the driving flange) when seating the CV shaft into the hub's wheel bearings. I apparently don't want to use the split tapered collar during this procedure because the collar might clamp to the CV shaft before the shaft is fully seated in the bearings.
Can anyone loan me their "special washer", or suggest an alternative method of seating the CV shaft into the wheel bearings? I assume this special washer is not something I'll find on the shelf of my local hardware store.
Thanks!

For those of you who own this book, you'll find mention of this "special washer" on page 8-3 (Figure 2.20) and page 10-4 (Figure 3.12).
