Here is a possible source.

Barry

 Not directly MB related, but I am looking for a source to buy M14 and
 M16 sized copper crush washers.  These are specifically for
 reconnecting power steering fittings on another vehicle.

I would definitely try NAPA. Or do you have a real hardware store with those
drawers and drawers of different fasteners and washers?

I found one site that list them, but they do not take web orders for
less than $25.

Tried a few local auto parts stores with no luck.  Have not tried NAPA
yet or the dealer but if those fail anyone else know of anyplace I can
source these?

We do, they don't have them.  :-(.  I hate it when a project is
sidelined for want of a $0.50 part.

Glad to see that they are available from McMaster-Carr!  The only
place I've found them has been the Stealer and Rusty. Same for the
aluminum crush washers.

I'd like to know a cheap source for these too.  The drain plugs for the
differentials and transfer case on my Isuzu Trooper require ginormous
washers.  The dealer has them, of course, but for a ridiculous price (and
Isuzu dealers are not exactly on every block).

those don't look like crush washers to me.  Too thick, and too big an
OD compared to what I pulled.  they look more like regular flat
washers but made of copper for electrical conductivity.
