need help: steering rack lock ring?

hey all,

I just finished replacing the tie rods with the turbo tie rods and I found that on the driver's side there were some parts which _should_ have been in the steering box which were not. Three parts to be exact....a lock ring (?) with maybe 12 teeth around the outside, a rubber ring (1/8 inch wide), and a plastic ring maybe 1/4 inch wide. The lock ring was cracked which I'm assuming allowed the pieces to come out. Without the pieces the in the box, the rack becomes loose thus resulting in a little play in the steering. Does anyone have any info on this? perhaps a diagram of the rack? whats the part number here on pelican parts?

btw...the turbo tie rods is probably the best upgrade i've done so far! i would suggest it to everyone with the carrera rods.

thanks for your help,

David
