OK so I am putting things back together and forgot to take a photo before I took the steering stem busing assy. I have attached a pic, but I don't think it is correct.

Questions

1) Does the clam shell bushing goes on the bottom or top? (photo attached shows the top)

2) Does the taller side of the shaft of the bearing face towards the top of the bike or faces towards the gound.

looks like you have it right to me. can you get a cotter pin through the shaft when it's fully assembled?

The clam shell goes on the top. The longer portion of the bearing should face down.
