I had the same problem about 5 years ago. Took it to a shop and they had to break the washer off. Not sure how they did it though.
Just repacked my bearings again last night and had a similiar problem. I was able to pry the washer off this time though. Appears to be a gouge on one of the teeth so I filed it down and put it back on...although will probably have to pry it off again to replace. Speaking of which, I stopped at Ford this morning and the only way to get a new washer is to buy the complete hub assembly....$370.
Please let me know what you did to fix your problem....as I'll be there again soon it looks
