So, lower race just has bearing and upper race has bearing, rubber seal, a metal washer, a split ring, and the upper seal assembly (not listed in order of assembly). Thanks!
Yeah, basically that's the how a drop-in/integrated headset works. Two bits on the bottom (bearing and crown race) the rest is on the top.
