Tie rod lock tab washers for an FD?

I need to find out if they are necessary I guess first off. The lock tab/pant leg washers that go between the power steering rack and the inner tie rods. I cant find them...anywhere for the FD. I read another thread that says loctite is enough. Suggestions? Help please, Im trying to get up and running. Its been a long time comin. thanks in advance.

This sounds like a dealer item. Did you call Ray @ Malloy Mazda?

Typically u can reuse the old ones, guessing from this post you don't have them... Try Malloy if you want to get new ones, he can defiantly get them for you. If not just get some blue (medium) or red (high strength) loctite and you will be fine.
