Help with KDS 18 pump rebuild

[brandman]

Hey all I’m in the process of rebuilding the pump in my Kds 18 . Bought a new seal kit on eBay. .. want to go and put it all together and realize that I need a touch/clear gauge to stack the washers on the motor shaft …. PN … TL-91043
Can anyone tell me the dimensions of said gauge ? The instructions in the service manual are not the greatest

I have the gauges for these and they're not necessary if you transfer and stack the original washers on top of the motor shaft. Confirmed this on 4 different 18-20 dishwashers using the gauge set.

I installed a new seal in my KDS-18 and I didn’t have the gauge either. I did wonder if it would all go together ok and work properly without using the gauge. It did indeed go together no problem and it’s still working perfectly a year later.

Ok so here’s the problem….. i had a bunch of those washers on my bench when I took it apart and I don’t remember where the tiny flat ones go and the one thick one goes . I know some of them go under the seal kit and some go on the upper part near the retaining screw

There's a thick washer that goes under the drain impeller, that's probably the one you're referring to.

Yes I’ll send pictures of all the washers I have tonight ….

Ok so this is what I had for washers sitting on my workbench I wish I would’ve taken pictures as I took it apart, but this is what I’m left with. I’m assuming that the thick one that I’m holding is the first one that goes on. .. but then my question is where did the other three go?
