I think I have to many toys/hobbies and am starting to get the procedures for each messed up.  I have my rear tire off and am going to go ahead and pull the final drive/drive shaft to lube and inspect everything.  I see the plastic thurst washer that goes between the right side bearing face and the drive flange.  Now the question:  Is there anything special about the orientation of that washer?  I could have sworn I read something about a cupped washer in there somewhere and it needing to be oriented the right way, but that might have been a snowmobile or tractor or boat or reloading or...I don't know.

Don't think so.  It is a spacer.  A critical piece, but have seen them made out of a milk jug to get someone on the road while waiting on the part to come in.
