FWIW- I have NEVER used a ruck waist strap. I bridle at the idea of being charged for TA-50, however, so I usually buckle the strap to itself back around the frame, tighten it and tape the ends.
Tighten your shoulder straps and find that happy arch in your lower back that allows your kidney pad to ride on the top of your ass. You should be running anyway, and 55 pounds isn't heavy enough to really worry about re-distributing that weight.
At least that's what has worked for me. Put it in your kit bag and use it if the feeling grabs you.
