Hi everyone, I recently acquired a 1985 4+3 that, you guessed it, needs work. I was disassembling the drivetrain, when I noticed that there was a washer floating on the transmission bottom, visible through the manual transmission drain hole. I removed it through the side cover. It's dimensions are: 1.623 OD, .034 thickness, .886 flat to flat on the ID hex shape.
Can somebody ID this for me?
My guess is it could be a washer from the reverse idler gear. Thrust washers I see with slots and tabs, this one is just flat. You can see the gap in my gear pic. Looks like something should be there from the T10 parts diagrams I have seen. Transmission serial matches VIN, got car from my family, 1 owner. No transmission rebuild, but the O/D unit was worked on. Could this be from the original factory build?
Here are two pics. The washer, and the reverse idler gear.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks
