I'm gonna be replacing the seal and bushings in my steering stem just wondering how hard is it to get it out I haven't really looked at it yet.

the bottom peice of the steering stem is NON rebuildable, you have to order the new 80-90$ part, if yours has play i would highly reccomend getting the walsh aftermarket peice, it is bearing style and rebuildable

if you go the walsh route pm me for the guy to call over at walsh

have to replace the whole bearing housing on the bottom of the stem, runs about 70$ oem, some one has a rebuildable one tho can't remember who.
