Walter,
If your old locknuts on the inner tie rods are rounded, you might think
about replacing them. Other than that, you'll have everything that you
need! (No additional bushings) There may or may not be a flat washer
between the nylock nut and the steering arm. Don't worry either way....I
always use one there FWIW.

Good luck,
Jim
