Yes. Looks like a pinion gear thrust washer. But the pinion gears stayed in place. I don't know which one it came from. I don't see another one anywhere.

Actually I remember one did move. So I am thinking I will move the other one and make sure one is there, then put this one in the other side.
Does that make sense?

There appears to be two Pinion Thrust washers, one on each side of each pinion gear on the Pinion Shaft. Two Side Gear Thrust Washers, one / side gear.

Yeah. I will have to look tomorrow when I get back at it. Thank you.
Just got done with my rear diff- the gear can stay in and still have that washer slip out while trying to juggle the install. I'd bet that is what happened.
EDIT/ADD: A smear of grease will help hold the thrust washer to the gear while assembling.

Got it done. Yes, one just fell out. It is all back together properly now.
No more vibrations! Yay
