Inner tie rod lock washer issue
 
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:woot:


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.

When I got my Moogs, they didnt come with washers either. I just used my old ones. I honestly dont see why they would come with them, doesnt seem to be something that would come with.

I used my old washer as well just hope you didn't crack it taking it off

Also, to throw it in the mix, you can always get another washer the same thickness and diameter. Make it a grade 5 washer for strength.
