Frequently asked questions

What does the thrust washer do?
The thrust washer controls end-float and takes axial thrust on the mainshaft of the R380 five-speed manual gearbox. Located at the mainshaft 5th and reverse gears, it keeps those gears correctly positioned during operation.
Which vehicles does this thrust washer fit?
This thrust washer fits the Defender, Discovery 1, Discovery 2, Range Rover Classic and Range Rover P38 with the R380 gearbox. It sits at the mainshaft 5th/reverse gears; on the Discovery 1 it applies from VIN FA393361 and Range Rover Classic from VIN JA610294.
Why is the mainshaft thrust washer important?
The thrust washer sets mainshaft end-float, so a worn or incorrect washer typically allows excess movement and noisy or jumping 5th and reverse gears. It's selected to the correct thickness during a gearbox rebuild to hold end-float within tolerance.
