If you install both washers you have too much positive camber without any shims.

That is where I am  But all of my parts came from a 69-71 truck. My spacers, came from those yrs, & the shims go into the back side of the spacer. I do understand that machining the cross shaft may be the best deal......might have to burn a number, & think about it  Many thanks for your thoughts...CL
