Go to the link and look for your year and model and the rear wheel diagram.

Thanks, now I see it.  Should I replace it with every tire change?

I replaced mine at 62K. Now I have 124K so it's about time. Maybe next tire change.

The thrust washer? No. It's nylon or teflon. It's purpose is to keep the star from rubbing/eating on the wheel at the bearing surface...replace it if worn or cracked. DO NOT run without one. Wheels are expensive!
