I don't know if you can buy them any more, and if I recall correctly the thickness is changed to set the end float on a bearing in the diff. Check the manual at the address below.

I asked about the diff pre-load but to be honest, these machines are so old I doubt they're worried about pre-load in thier diffs anymore. I'm just pleased I no longer have 20 litres of oil all over the floor! :)
