DIY? Tightening Steering Head Bearings
Written by CalvinFold on 1/22/2007 at 03:39 pm

I think my steering head bearings may be loose. I have the All Balls
tapered bearings but the front-end wobble is back and the steering is
feeling and acting loose again (when unweighted the steering "flops
over" from center very fast).

What do I need to check the torque on the bearings?

How do I properly tighten them?

What tools do I need?

How much plastic do I need to remove?

Thanks in advance,

Kevin
