A bit of a problem

Okay, I was riding this spot when I feel my bars wobbling back and forth. I took them off and noticed that the top headset bearing was missing a bunch of ball bearings. I went back to my house and put new bearings into the top headset cup, and screwed everything back in. But when I tried to screw my bars onto the fork, they slipped over the threads and just slid off. What happened?
 
It doesnt really matter, it used to happen to my micro bars but you just clamp it on like normal. Think of threadless forks? you dont screw the bars on do you.

Get a new slide tube.

The old one you are running is fucked up.

Thread it on and clamp it. TIGHT.

well no matter how tight I clamp it, it will still fall off. And now I have a few more problems, but I'm not gonna bother posting them cuz I'm asking for a whole new Pro for my birthday this month.
