I replaced my bar stem and risers recently (flatbars) and in doing this when I put it back together when I first tightened everything the forks rattled around and something wasn't right. After a bit of jiggling and making sure everything was what i thought was in place it seemed to go back together ok but now the steering creaks. I'm really not sure what I've done but it feels like everything's done up a bit too tight. Could somebody please explain how and where the spacers, washers and bearings should be positioned on the steering column please? Thanks

Loch side.
Is it a threaded or threadless set-up? If you don't know, post a photo.
