Fibre washer on axle Model 20055

[trooper1954]

Hi all,
I need to replace the fiber washer in the photos....it was destroyed trying to get the pinion gear off the axle.
I have researched extensively on line with no success....no parts diagram of this model shows any washer at all for this model.
Can I just use a fiber washer that fits the bore of the axle....or is this a specific type of washer?
Thanks.

You can fabricate one out of fiber material or some nylon plastic such as a Gatorade jug cap. It is basically there to keep dirt and debris from getting to the shaft bushing. Make sure the thickness is the same.

When looking at the parts diagram for your mower it appears the diagram doesn't match the parts on your mower. It looks like the pinion gear in your picture has 2 flat sides and locks to the shaft, where as the pinion gear in the diagram has a 4 sided keyed hole set up for a slipper style key.

ILENGINE.....pinion gear does indeed have two flat sides....this washer simply prevents dirt getting into the shaft bushing.
Auto Doc....great idea, thanks

As IL says double check your model number. 20055 is a cast deck, while your pictures show a steel deck.

Sorry Rivets....working on two mowers at once here and gave the wrong model and serial numbers.....old age sucks!!!!
the washer is from a Model 20374 serial # 405360514...the washer still does not show on parts diagrams for this mower.....what would happen if I didn't replace it??
Thanks
