Just pop the old bearing out and get new ones..grade 25..5/32 for that headset. Can also use loose bearing balls..grease into cup..lay bearings in there until they touch, remove 1.

Headset spacer..just get a 1 inch headset spacer. It may not lay keen in the top cap 'ledge', but it'll work.

Just a suggestion for anybody regarding sizes, etc..Sutherlands 5th edition(later ones not as complete) and a Park Ruler that has ball bearing sized holes on it to measure bearing balls. Can measure spoke lengths too..
