When I tighten the trunnion all the way down on the kingpin with no shims I 
have too much clearance between the trunnion and the thrust washer.  If I 
were to reduce the thickness of the thrust washer the clearance would 
increase.  A thicker (new?) thrust washer would allow me to add shims to 
obtain the proper clearance.
