Default Inner Tie rod came with no locking washer!

Hey forum, this is my first post, finally, since ive been usining this forum for over a year now , its helped me out with so much


So heres my issue, i'm currently replacing my lower balljoints, and inner/outer tierods, i got everything disassembled, and come to find out, my new moog inner tie rods didnt come with the locking washer!!Ive been waiting DAYS for auto parts.warehouse to process a replacement, but theyre still waiting on the nearest warehouse to respond.


Should i just flaten out the old one and re use it with loctite? I have called some local autoparts stores for the washer, but with no luck.


Thank you for reading.

I just this yesterday! and yes, the new inner didn't come with a new locking washer for me also. All moog parts were put in.

lower ball joints
inner/outer tie rods
front end link sway bars
front/rear sway bar bushings
steering rack bushings (ones on driver side are tough)

I have to say, this definitely help cured most of my shakings and vibration of vehicle.
