So I think we can agree Burnboy has a problem, probably due to an assembly issue. Bearing not seated, race not seated, improper use or non-use of spacer.
I would offer that if one must use a hammer to get anotherwise properly seated bearing group to fit, then one has something wrong and should stop ASAP. If he has to remove the bearing from his lower stem, he's likely to destroy it at this point.
After several hectic PMs and further research, it seems there is no absolute answer. It is specific to the bearing set used, allballs, or other, and the model.
I relooked at mine from every angle and can't see where it could be "wrong" though I can see how it could be different and still work. I did it 8+ years ago. The project went into mothballs after that, only recently resurrected, and I simply can't remember what brand of bearings I'm using.
But I'd never heard of All Balls till I joined here, so I bet mine are something else.
Some have said that they've noticed even from different "K"s the stack of bearings/races/spacers will differ.
One thing to be aware of, if one is still using the stock fork ears, if the stack doesn't measure the same as stock, the ears might not fit.
