I see on the drawings that there is a $10 washer that I believe fits between the "bush guide" and the angle drive. At least that is my assumption. As I took mine apart, I had no washer. Why does it cost $10? Looks alot like an oil plug washer in my wifes Honda Van. I think they are Aluminum. $10 for a washer, wow?
Number 62 below. Porsche part # 914 318 261 01 I know this is the Sportomatic drawing, but the Manual tranny exp view has the seal and the the washer located ABOVE #61 (guide bushing), and that just won't work. Why a $10 washer? |

It's more than just a washer.
It's a pretty thick "ring" that is a press fit to hold the seal in place. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |

If you have a new seal, don't worry about messing up the old one. Makes the prying out of the ring easier. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) |
