I pulled the steering axle this week and boy is it a mess. Bad ball joints. steering cylinder.

On the spider steering axle the parts book shows like 8 parts mine has none of them. I thought it strange that the spider just sat on the shaft nothing holding it.

Inside the spider it looks like it had some type of long ping bearing or maybe a top and bottom bearing. Again the book is not clear.

On mine the bottom bearing looks OK the top bearing was completely shredded.

I'm just trying to figure out if mine is different from the book or if all these are really missing? Plus looking for sone guidance on the these pin bearings in the spider.
