An engineer made the steering stem for me, its a press fit into the bottom triples and he made it out of a solid piece and drilled the holes from the top and bottom and then wielded a cap on the top and put the treads on. I gave him the old one to copy from and all the seals etc to get as accurate as he could with the measurements. I could ask him how much it was because I cant remember now and if you liked the price you could always send your bottom triple to him and you will get a nice new one back. I also gave him the bearing for the bottom triple and he pressed that on for me as will. Alot of VMXers use him over here but when he see us walking into his workshop he always starts laughing because of the wierd looking things we bring in for him to make.
