It sits between rotating or sliding parts to carry axial (end) load, minimise friction, and help keep the drive assembly aligned. A worn, distorted, or damaged thrust washer can lead to rough operation, binding, excess end-play, noise, and accelerated wear on adjacent components. Replacing this washer helps restore smooth rotation and protects key drivetrain parts inside the ratchet head.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv
