The painting is definitely easier said than done, this is the most complicated paint job I’ve undertaken and it’s not going well. I’ll plan to swap out the steering bearings. But I have got too much on right now to even think about it.Track T 2411 wrote:Concerning the steering head bearings, there should be no detent/ notch feeling, so it's probably time to replace them. Sometimes the notchy feeling is caused by hardened grease, but to do a thorough job of cleaning and repacking them, you're 80% on the way to replacing them anyway. I like the AllBalls kit; it has everything needed and is readily available from numerous vendors.
Nice work on the paint prep. That's one thing that I have yet to try my hand at in any serious way.
