I pulled the armrests off my front seats (non-adustable type) to
remove seat covers. After reinstalling them, they no longer have
tension/drag when flipped up/down. Worked just fine before, but now
they're floppy - all four of them. I saw that there is a large flat
plastic washer in there, which I assumed compresses somewhat to
provide the drag. But, even with the bolts tight, they are still
floppy. What did I do wrong?

Thanks,
