does the bearing on the bottom of the stem go through the hole in the frame with a collar on top of the frame and one below the frame or do both collars go around the bearing sitting on top of the frame or both collars below the frame? i just took mine out and the guy i bought it from had both of the collars below the hole in the frame and I dont think that is correct, thanks fellas

 

both collars go around the bearing and then bolt to the top side of the frame. i had to replace that bearing so i remember.

 

cool thanks bombsaint I had alot of play in my steering stem so I ordered a bearing thinking it was bad, pulled it all apart and found out it was dry but now I know why it was sloppy thanks brother

 

Confirmation on that one bombsaint.

 

Ditto.
Make sure you use a touch of loc-tite. Mine came loose.
