Thanks for the heads up. There's a nut in the product pictures, so it might come with it. I just ordered it the other day, so I will confirm once it comes in. Also, looking at the TIS manual they mention "Lubricating grease FB-1" Part# 83232208093. My mechanic friend told me I also will probably need to use loctite threadlocker on the inner tie rod threads. Do you know if this is necessary? I would assume TIS would mention something as critical as that.
