Got it.  No locking tabs on mine as there were no lock plates. I guess what 
made the  24mm nut seem tight when loosening things up was just it being 
kind of  “rusted” in place then. Though I could swear that the outer nut 
snugged the  inner down onto the tie rod much more tightly on one side than the 
other. I’ll  just have to look again.

If it really bothers you, park the car up on a curb (on the right  side), 
then working from underneath in the center, use a pipe wrench to hold the  
tie rod (tube part), and tighten the jamb nut further. You might find more 
room  to work this way. ;-) Sometimes you have to work with the surroundings.
