Rollers are aligned radially within a bearing cage, for rolling contact with a first thrust washer concentric with the bearing cage. The first thrust washer has a flat raceway portion and a curled portion that wraps around a portion of the bearing cage to retain the bearing cage and the first thrust washer together as an assembly. The curled portion includes a rim that extends radially 360 degrees with respect to the axis of the thrust washer and has a folded configuration such that a doubled portion is offset with respect to an axial midpoint of the thrust bearing to prevent the thrust bearing from being installed with a reversed orientation. |
