Default Stearing head race replacement tools

Have a 2015 Ultra Low and want to replace the head race's when I replace my triples. I ordered the following and it doesn't work. My races appear to be much larger than what the spacer and tool cups are made for. I have searched and am unable to find anything different. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

1 Part #: H28286 JIMS Steering Head Tool Driver Spacer - 2388
1 Part #: H28419 JIMS Steering Head Bearing Race Installer - 1725
1 Part #: H28420 JIMS Steering Head Bearing Race Tool - 2232
1 Part #: H28702 JIMS Handle/Driver - 33416-80

The steering head/triple trees for the Rushmore bikes changed... I believe the tools that worked on prior years won't work on the Rushmore bikes...

To replace the bearing races in the head... you can use this.. Jims neck bearing tool #5515

Note that the fitment for this tool is 2014-2016 bikes.....

Pack the new bearings with boat trailer grease, stays put MUCH longer and won't melt out.
