The mallet and wood concerns me because you won't have much opportunity to make sure it goes in straight if it's tight in there.

I couldn't find PVC that I thought would fit right. The ID on 1 1/4 was just a little big when I was at the hardware store. The galvanized hasn't hurt anything yet, the clearances are very close, and it has some weight, so all you have to do is drop it like once.

Does it say Aheadset on the topcap? Or on the bearing race?

I don't have the cap that goes on the spacers, but the cap that goes under the spacers says Aheadset. The cartridge fits in there perfectly. Actually, if you look at my pics, you can see it.
