[QUOTE="FJRAust, post: 389325, member: 4749"] Now that's a good question. Off the top of my head I can think of a few benifits. The tapered rollerbearing withh give a larger bearing contact area therfore taking more load without damaging either the cup or the roller. This would therefore also minimise wear and the development of free play. You would also be able to load a tapered roller bearing more than the Yammi originals and therefore stiffening up or increasing resistance in the steering head, to some degree acting like a steering damper.
