So i have installed the DTSS eliminator bushing and replace my wheel bearings but when i was taking off the rear carrier i had to destroy the plastic washer on the top mounting bolt so that i could get the carrier off because the sleeves kept catching and this was the solution to the problem. but my question is do i absolutely have to put a new washer in there or not. And where would i get the washer or even if a steel washer will work. Any help would be appreciated. thanks

Well, I'd start out by checking with Mazda.

But that's just me.

Ya..it would work..But Just for the Hell of it,Call up the dealer and get a price on that Plastic washer..I am guessing about a Buck and a Half.

If you can't get the hub off, find a socket that fits around the sleeve and give it a few taps with the BFH.

Yeah i tried that and tried using a c clamp to get it the move the sleeve out but it didn't work. And I've already got it out cuz i just got impatient so my solution was to break the washer out of there to get more clearance and it worked just wondering if i need the washer there, thinking it makes it so that the mount doesn't move as much. I am no rocket scientist by any means though.

Actually I just looked in my Black Dragon Automotive catalog and they have it listed and its name is Stopper and it is listed at 2.95 a piece. Thanks any ways guys.
