Where to buy crush washers in bulk?

[Peter]

Hey all,

This post is specifically about my 04 stratus se, but also a general question in sourcing these washers.

I usually use copper washers (that I sourced at an advance auto). They no longer carry these washers, so I had to go with aluminum. I’ve usually been able to reuse my washers at least 2 times while using copper, but when I changed my oil a few days ago, the aluminum one started leaking (only a little collecting on the bolt head, and it doesn’t leave any marks on the driveway when parked).

So my question: does anyone know where I can source these washers in bulk (my drain plug is M14x1.5)? I bought my oil filters in bulk (a 12 pack of MO-409s from Rockauto), but it seems they don’t sell bulk packages of crush washers… Also, what crush washer material do you guys like (what is more prone to leaking when reused)?

Thanks all!

You can try ebay or amazon. copper has always worked for me.
