Hey guys haven't been here in awhile but in kinda stumped on this. Got a 2016 GT

Been having issues with abs and traction control. Ended up replacing all 4 speed sensors to no avail.

Took it to a dealer for diagnostics and come to find out my hubs are shot. They wanted 1500 to do the work, so I decided I'll do the repairs.

Got the new hubs and have them already installed, but my issue is the thrust washer (FR3Z-7G273-A)

Both is them are basically destroyed. I've read on here that some people don't bother with them and some do. Ford sells them for 30$ each.

Do I actually need them?

They don’t use them on the 2019. I just installed Ford Performance half shafts in my Bullitt and there were no thrust washers on there from the factory. I used red loctite and torqued the nuts to 200 ft-lbs per the supplied instructions
