now that the rains have stopped and the 4 inches of water have gone it is time to install the tie rods. am i supposed to use the brass washer or the old cover (it's red now) or both. without the red piece what is gonna hold the boot in place? the rubber ring on the shaft is too small.

Dump the red thing, you don't need it. I think it depends on what struts you have as to whether or not you use that think washer or a thinner washer from the hardware store. The washer has nothing to do with bump steer. Thinner washer will give you more adjustability in the tie rod to adjust toe.
