Default Axel and Rack and pinnion set

Just replaced my bent front axel on my cart. But something doesn’t look right. I have attached a picture of my front bolt that attaches the axel to the rack and pinnion. It seems like the space is too short and pulls the rack and pinnion down. The other picture is of a YouTube video of Ezgo taking off the rack and pinnion. It looks like mine is missing an extra spacer or nut that goes on top of the spacer. Does anyone know what I mean? Thanks.

After some short research it would appear that I am correct. Here is a picture of the manual and the highlighted parts I believe I am missing.

So maybe my question should be will it hurt my cart to drive it until I get that nut and washer?

As long as the steering shaft doesn't have a chance to disconnect because of this, I bet your ok.

Bought the missing parts and fixed the toe in to within 1/8in. Cart drives good now.
