The thrust washer that is behind the basket that
holds all the friction disks , It goes on the splines
and then drops onto the flat round part leaving
space and wiggles around is this correct ?
There are no splines after that and under the clutch
basket it self. Just wanted to make sure.
Thanks,

That's OK, the Notches on the Washer are designed like that to keep the Washer as close to the inner Diameter, not tumbling.

Jeff,
To me, that doesn't make sense. Why go to all the trouble to make a thrust washer with an internal spline ($$) if it isn't going to use those splines once installed, but just sit in a spot with no splines? I don't think something is right here.....

Right. I even pulled the clutch basket all the way off to make sure
if there where any splines to go onto but there is none. I remember
when I first slide the friction basket off that washer was perfectly
on the back side of it. with the oil keeping it in place I guess. but
I agree why did they add the teeth to the thrust washer? when
there is nothing to hold it at the end? :think:

Squeeze huh? so look at my pictures again please. I just am not understanding yet :D

maybe in lamins term squeeze is saying if the notches are on there , in short
once it reaches the open area. there will be less to move around? make since?
hehehe

And I took this all apart for nothing? :big-grin-emoticon: (I just could not sleep last night over this washer)

But boy and sure can change a basket out fast now! :cool10:
