You know spacer rings for the counter shaft of a gear box of a car? Well if you saw A= 2.20 2.0 1.79 What would the A stand for? Please ignore the vehicle details above they are not correct. Thank you!

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly! I do not know what kind of car unfortunately. I just have a list of spare pieces. The A comes from the "spacer rings" under the heading Counter Shaft. .I thought the 2.0 bla bla would be size but why not then use S.

It depends on the manufacturer. The A could be the size within a certain specifications and there could be a B or C as well.

Sounds like spacers are different thicknesses for setting back lash, a model of car would be a great help.
