Exclamation 1986 Fxst help!

I'm working on a 1986 fxst softtail and I had to remove the clutch cover. When I opened the clutch cover up there was a needle bearing intact in its housing still and two washers that look like the go on both sides of it at the bottom of the housing, I don't know where it goes to. Any ideas?
