When you're pulling that heavy chisel plow and notice a grinding sound from the transmission, or your PTO starts getting rough when you engage it under load, worn thrust washers might be the culprit. These hardworking little parts handle the axial loads that keep your transmission gears and shafts positioned properly. When they wear out, you'll feel it in sloppy shifting and hear it in unwelcome noises coming from under the hood. What You're Getting Complete set of thrust washers for proper axial load management High-quality materials designed to handle the forces your transmission puts out Exact replacement dimensions for reliable fit and function Multiple washers in the kit to handle different positions in your drivetrain Built for Real Farm Work This thrust washer set fits the workhorses of many farming operations - John Deere 40 and 50 series tractors that have been pulling equipment and powering implements for decades. Whether you're running a 4050 on row crop work, using an 8450 for heavy tillage, or depending on a 4440 for general farm duties, these tractors see serious use and their transmissions need quality components to keep everything running smooth. Made to Last Your transmission operates under tremendous loads every day, and these thrust washers are engineered to handle that punishment. Made from durable materials that resist wear and maintain their dimensions under pressure, they provide the precise spacing and load distribution your drivetrain components need to operate properly for years of hard use. Good to Know This is definitely a job for when you've got the transmission apart anyway - thrust washer replacement requires significant disassembly. It's smart to inspect all the washers while you're in there and replace the whole set rather than just the obviously worn ones. Keep the old washers as a reference for proper positioning during reassembly.
