Default Mirage plus washers ?

Trying to test some 27 M+ (solid hubs) on Bravo Drives and we got the washer setup the book calls for ..
.
Thrust washer ... then a splined washer and a flat washer under the nut ....with everything torqued there is still about 1/8" movement forward and aft with the prop ....It doesnt look right to me but the shop I got the info from does not deal with HP stuff too often .... they are saying under load the prop is pushing against the Thrust washer so it should not matter ... I just dont like the idea of the prop being bale to move on the shaft .....m
