So I went to the dealership today to buy crush washers for my 2001 T4R 4x4. The attached pics are what they sold me. Question- after researching the forum I've read that the crush washers have a "felt" feeling to them. These are straight metal. Can anyone say, just by looking at the pics, if these are correct? I'd hate to drain the fluid and have the wrong washers.

Don't see any pics but I also have a 01 4x4 and got all the drain/fill washers for the diffs and transfer case from the dealership. There were no felt washers like you have on the oil drain plug washer.

I've seen three different types of washers supplied by Toyota dealers:
Flat bare metal(Al), flat metal coated on both sides with a gray slippery paint or graphite material, and a white fiber/composite material with green coloring on the flat surfaces. None of them have been actual crush washers that physically compress when tightened like spark plug crush washers.
 
That all looks right to me. I just did all the oils (diffs/transfer case) in mine and had the same parts direct from the dealer. Just match them up as you go. Don't forget to loosen the fill bolts first!
 
does anyone have the part numbers for the crush washers for the diffs and transfer case, engine oil and tranny oil pan.
2001 if makes a difference ?
