play in steering

[elwood]

hello everyone. I have a little play in my steering, it's about a an inch to the left and right, but it is solid forward and back. I'm not sure what bearing I need to replace. Any thoughts?

What about your tie rods?

id check tie rod ends, the ball joints and the lower steering stem bearings. if any of the tie rod studs are loose in the socket then thats probably the source of the movement

Id have to say its the steering stem bearings...I havent been on too many warriors that had good steering stem bearings haha. Check the tie rods too just to be safe
