Hi Ray,
If the washers you mean are #16 on Plate (Tavola) 16, they are the same
(at least on all my Ambos). If you do have a thicker one, I'd put it on
the right under the axle nut (rounded side out, flat side against the
rear drive). The other thinner one keeps the axle from working into
softer aluminum of the brake backing plate on the left.

The other piece, #18, is actually not on the wheel but in the rear
drive. If you look in the center of the splined hub of the rear drive
there should be a spacer - that's #18. It really should have been on
Plate 10 with the rear drive assy. in my opinion. Hope this helps!

Hi,
Looking at the parts manual for my 73 Eldo, it raises some questions for

what I have waiting in the box for rear wheel reassembly.

Tavola 16 shows:
2 washers (one on either end of the axle) with same part #. One of
the washers I pulled off the wheel when disassembling is different. It
is 4mm thick and has one flat side and one rounded side. I don't recall
the order of disassembly but I was thinking it was a spacer for the left

side, like on my old G5, that was critical in terms of proper placement
or bad things happen, man. The parts diagram doesn't indicate this. Both

washers shown are same part #. Any ideas?

and

#18 (still on Tavola 16) part#1263 4100 is totally missing from my
wheel. Don't even recall removing such a thing. There are the two
smaller spacers that the bearings ride on but nothing like #18. Anyone
have an extra for sale? Did all the Eldo wheels have one?

Thank you
Ray
