Tapeded Roller Steering Bearing Kit Question

(1/2) > >>

Lynx:
I've recently purchased a taper roller set for the front end refurb of my 400. I suspect the steering stem on the bike now is from a CJ360T as the spares I got with the bike seems to include a few for that model. It's too short to fit the washer under the stem nut and there is no hole in it for the steering lock bolt. I do have a spare which has the hole in the stem but The bearing kit comes with a choice of bottom washers and sealing washers. Any idea which ones I need to fit? Photo attached. There is a thick and a thin of each.

Thanks in advance.
Steve

Trigger:
If these kits come with 2 of each it is for the top and the bottom of the steam. Any paperwork with it?

Lynx:
Gosh Trigger, that was a fast reply. Yes the instructions say measure the original bearing stack and use the relevant washer or no washer to suit.

Lynx:
All the internal diameters are large. Not small to suit the top of the stem.

Trigger:
Just try different washer on the bottom until you get a good fit. You can tell if it is not right when you try to put the chrome dome nut on and it is tight but has a gap.
