Octane Source for the needle bearing in the steering?

[delagem]

Hi,

my Octane's steering is getting sloppy, so I changed out the bearing in the cup, on top of the steering plate. That's an easy bearing, 6004RS, found anywhere.

Unfortunately, there is another bearing in there, that isn't even shown on the parts diagram. It's a flat needle thrust bearing, and would be a part of component #22 in the picture below.

My Polaris dealer says there isn't a bearing there, despite the one I'm holding in my hand. NAPA is no help.

Any suggestions, besides having it shipped in, and waiting a week?

Hey, thanks for the advice. I would have gotten the kit from Watcon, but I already had half the parts on hand (the 6004rs bearing in the cup, and the o-ring). Plus, I was trying to get these parts on short notice.

I found the bearing and 2 thrust washers for $5 thru McMaster Carr, bearing p/n 5909k34, and thrust washers (2) p/n 5909k47. Next day for the cost of UPS ground...
