Usually the outer rubber piece and the bearing are good. It is probably just the plastic ring that needs to be replaced. I take a piece of pvc pipe and turn it down to fit inside the inner race of the bearing and the outside of the shaft. To save the retaining ring, I put a piece of safety wire looped through each tab and gradually pull upwards to release its grip. Go around and tug gently on each safety wire and tab. Once out, gently reshaped the tabs. if they got bent. All this is done from the topside of the steering shaft.
