If you still want to buy the crush washers, get them online. They're only .23 cents each before shipping costs.

Wow shipping is about $9. I guess I'm better off buying the washers from the dealer. Thanks for the links tho.

Damn! I didn't think it'd be that much for some washers.


Like I said, though, I've been using the same nylon washer for .. geez .. gotta be over two years now. I've never had a problem with it.

It came with a drain plug from the local auto parts store. I didn't need the plug, but they didn't sell just the washer, so I had to buy them both.
