Does anybody have one of these lying around?
Its the little part which the drive shaft bolt goes through
Thanks

Throw away and use shakeproof washers if you have ruined one

Sorry for the humor, I don't see what is so special about them?
If the had locking tabs on them they would be useful, but as they are I can only see they are glorified (heavy) washers

I replaced mine with shakeproof (split) washers, much more effective at holding the bolts tight!

Nope - I bought a new set of these from ford when I replaced the back end on mine.

not cheap though...
