When I took the drive shaft apart there where were two bolts that had lock washers and two that didn't. I'm guessing that for sure there needs to be flat washers mating with the flex disc joint but not sure why there two bolts that had lock washers and two that didn't. All of the nuts are locking nuts so not sure why there are two lock washers.

As long as you've got it opened up, why not hit your hydro with some de-greaser and pressure washer (or at least a garden hose). Then give the buttons on your release valves a few drops of PB blaster or WD40.
