Too much to list but will say steering bushing was hard to set. Needed to be pressed in at an angle. After pulling steering wheel and shaft cover and extended shaft. Used long spade screw driver popped old bushing out from under mower by pushing it up thru,( not a lot of room). Once loose slide it up the shaft. Before running new bushing down, most likely there will be a layer of rust, use emery cloth to remove most of it, also doesn't hurt to apply silicone grease on shaft where the bushing rides on shaft and inside the bushing, don't need a lot (makes for easier steering). Also will not harm plastic bushing. Next slide it down, position it where the notch is facing front, only going in one way. Now get a pvc pipe long enough to reach bushing from top, being at an angle the pvc pipe will need an angle to match the bushing. I used bench grinder to make to this happen lol. Just take a little off then ran it down check angle, kept doing this until fits flush with bushing and deck where bushing is pressed in. Time to press in or really bump it in using a hard rubber maul or hammer on the other end of pvc pipe. May take few times, just make sure bushing is lined up by notch facing front. Good luck.
