The bottom of the stem were it bolts to the frame is there suppose to be a little play? Just seems a bit loose i tried to tighten the nut but it tight as hell. Just curious...
 
I'll have to rip it apart, that's the only thing I didn't touch during the rebuild. the reason i ask is because i tried to grease it and it wouldn't take it like it plugged, New zerk fitting and still won't take grease.
 
It's loose where the piece that the tierods go on. Washer is there, but you can pull it up and down by yankin on the bars. Is this something that can wait a little while or is it gonna break if it's not replaced?? Money is tight!
