I tried to replace my thrust ring and there was no way it was going to fit inside the bearing AND on the steering rod. It just seemed to be too small (or the wall of the ring was too thick). I bought two different rings and both were impossible to install. I compared these new ones to the one I took off and there was an ever so slight difference in the surface texture of the plastic washers, couldn't tell if the thickness of the material was different. Because the old one was still pliable, I used it and the ignition switch housing slid into place with only a little persuasion. Just be aware that a new ring might have different dimensions. Perhaps someone can check the measurements of both if they have them?
