Another tip. A different thickness of washer may give you the perfect adjustment if you find you are in between settings

I ran standard 1/2 inch washers for four years. Although they were larger diameter and not hardened, they never had a problem with "squishing". Be sure you sandwhich the new washers between the factory ones - especially if not hardened.

As above. Be SURE you get hardened washers, or they will just squeeze smaller.

Mine are 1/2 inch. I needed to add some when we both a new TT. I went to Ace hardware and bought 1/2" #8 hard flat washers. They worked fine.
