1550 front axle...where's the thrust washer?

Getting the front axle back together and I can't find the thrust washers. Do they stick up in the vertical tube? Are the spindles too far out at the top? New felt seals are not snug under the steering arm. They're just a little thicker than the gap shown in the last picture. Am I missing something?

Thanks, John. Do you have any tricks to get the outer ends of the axle free? I got the U-bolts and pins out but they're stuck and painted in. I have no way to safely raise it enough to get the knuckles out.
