A cross for a universal joint includes a body including an outwardly extending trunnion and a bearing cup mounted on the trunnion. A thrust washer is disposed between the trunnion and the bearing cup. The thrust washer includes an outer edge portion, a spacer portion that extends from the outer edge portion and is curved in cross sectional shape, a spring portion that extends generally radially inwardly from the spacer portion and is shaped generally in the form of a hollow cone, and an inner lip portion that extends inwardly from the spring portion. The thrust washer absorbs thrust loads that occur between an outer end surface of the trunnion and an inner surface of a closed end of the bearing cup and takes up any axial looseness therebetween. |
