Hugh :
I believe the ".005 oversize" washers are .005" for the pair. If you use
one paired with a standard, it will take up only .0025". That would put you
at .0055", which IMO is perfect.
As someone also noted, it's permissible to dress down the thrust washers a
bit, using very fine sandpaper and a sheet of glass or a surface plate.
