The O ring as part of the kit is not needed and should not be installed. Since I was curious to see what would happen if I installed the O ring, I tried it in two different locations one in front of the seal and one behind the seal. In both cases, the control valve did not function properly, resulting in no power assist.
I did talk to Max, they indicated that this kit could be used in other applications. Hence the extra part.
So, my advice would be just to install the new seal and lock nut.
