I've a KS LEV Si (the no frills basic one*) which has gone sloppy rotationally (not sloppy fore/aft or sideways)
I swapped the PTFE and short brass guide bushings from stif** trying to follow KS's service video (though for a higher end LEV) and struggled to fit the replacements, after persuasion*** they went in but it only lasted a ride or two before the same slop was back

*the top bush is housed in the top cap and theres no anti-rotation sleeve thing like i900,i950's of old so it can't be that thats worn

Could I have used the wrong parts? **the stif site doesn't list the LEV Si on the parts pages:
