I have seen when you follow the manual and torque the hub nut to spec, it actually drags the washer tab with it a little bit which weakens it rendering it unsafe to re-use.

I was quoted an exorbitant price, locally, for the washers, that is why I had some made.
Hmmm..... I reused the nut, and didn't think it cause any problems down the track.
I manually adjust it by feeling the drag and play and keep doing it until I get the desired feeling of drag.

I will pull out mine soon and re-do the bearings, and will find out what or if I need to replace the bits and pieces above.
