Ahmet -
you shouldn't have to weld a large washer ON the control arm, it should already be there.
when you reassemble the suspension, with everything in it's normal position, (i.e. front bushing centered properly) the thrust washer should just be resting against the front face of the rear bushing.
It sounds like you might have tweaked your frame a little. to determine this, you could measure the distance between the front bushing mounts (the engine support crossmember) and the 2 rear bushing bolt holes. Compare the good side to the bad side. it's probably off by at least 1/2" A possible solution might be to add a few large washers to the rear of the control arm to act as spacers, and make up the difference.
good luck
Mike
