[Healeys] Belleville washers in BN2 steering box

[Per Schoerner]

For sure you need the belleville washers, and correctly installed as well. You need 6 of them. They act as a spring in the steering box. I've seen a steering box that missed 3 of them, that didn't work well.
AH Spares have them for £3,25 plus VAT.

Mine doesn't appear to have ever had them; anyone know if they're required? I'm guessing yes, because otherwise the rocker shaft looks like it rests on a rough surface but, they list for $12.79/ea, and if they're not necessary--or if anyone knows of a cheaper alternative--I'd prefer not to spend that much.
