Where to get crush or peel washers. They didnt even have a clue what they were at my local hardware store. But they are also dumbshits. If anyone has a couple that I can buy that would be great, or a good place to acquire some. Thanks guys

I don't go to the car dealership to buy a new washing machine, so I wouldn't go to a hardware store to buy gun parts. IMHO

Try asking for their stock of Belleville washers. I find them better to my liking than either the crush or peel. They come in different thickness and sizes allowing much wider timing, if needed.

Sorry, just giving you a hard time. Didn't mean anything personal.
