The Winters Drive Retaining Washer is a purpose-built retention component engineered for quick change rear end assemblies. Winters designed this washer specifically for drive yoke bolt applications where secure fastening under high-stress conditions is non-negotiable. With an outer diameter of 1-1/2 inches and an inner diameter of 3/8 inch, this washer provides the precise fit required for Winters Quick Change rear end systems. We stock this component for builders and mechanics who demand OEM-spec hardware that performs when it matters most.
Winters manufactures this retaining washer from steel with a black oxide finish that resists corrosion while maintaining a low-profile appearance. The 1/8 inch thickness delivers substantial load distribution without adding unnecessary bulk to the drive yoke assembly. Black oxide coating offers improved lubricity compared to bare steel, reducing friction during installation and torque application. This washer meets the tight tolerances required for performance drivetrain work where component slippage or loosening under vibration would create serious mechanical problems. The steel construction handles the cyclic stresses inherent in rotating drivetrain assemblies without fatigue cracking or deformation over extended service intervals.
This retaining washer serves one specific purpose: keeping drive yoke bolts secure in Winters Quick Change rear ends during demanding operational conditions. Whether you are building a dedicated race vehicle or maintaining equipment that sees heavy rotational loads, the 5037 washer ensures proper bolt retention throughout the assembly lifecycle. We carry a full selection of parts and accessories for drivetrain maintenance and vehicle builds. When your application requires precise hardware that matches manufacturer specifications, this Winters washer delivers without compromise.
This washer is designed for Winters Quick Change rear end systems commonly found in circle track racing, drag racing, and other high-performance applications. It specifically secures the drive yoke bolt assembly in these specialized rear ends.
The Winters 5037 measures 1-1/2 inches outer diameter, 3/8 inch inner diameter, and 1/8 inch thickness. These dimensions ensure proper fit and load distribution on Winters Quick Change drive yoke bolt assemblies.
Black oxide provides corrosion resistance while adding lubricity that reduces friction during installation. This finish also maintains dimensional stability since it adds minimal thickness compared to other coating methods, preserving the precise fit required for drivetrain components.
Steel retaining washers with black oxide finish can typically be reused if they show no signs of deformation, cracking, or significant wear. Inspect the washer for flatness and surface damage before reinstallation. Replace if any distortion is visible.
