Crush Washers


Recommended Posts

Instead of using the factory crush washers, pick up some HONDA part # 94109-14000 from your local Honda CAR dealer. They charge me $0.25 each for them but I buy a bag of 50 for $12.50 so I always have some around.

In the picture below you can see the fat aluminum crush washer compared to the thin factory tin washer hanging off the top of the threads of the diff drain bolt.

If you tighten your drain plugs without using a torque wrench (I use one) the Honda washer will put up with more abuse and still seal well while protecting the threads of what you are trying to seal. Shown below is the washer after crush. Note the raised part where it has formed into the hole.
