All the original 'flat' spring washers I have are springless and the later square section with the sharp ends are usually too brutal for an old Austin 7.

I don't use a spring washer with locknuts at all (put the full nut on first and lock with the half nut).

The tanged washer is necessary against the fibre washer on the dampers.
