If your doing this conversion on an 07 streetbob, using all OEM 2007 parts (including 21" front wheel) you will also need theleft side 07 WG slider. I did the conversion using the Bobs sliders and the wheel was offset 90mm. NOT CENTERED! 46619-06 is the part number. Trust me, I wouldn't have spent the extra $100, if I didn't have to. Also, check with your dealer Harley calls out different part numbers for left side, but all 07 dyna's share the same part number for the right side.

See "nightster bob" post for pics.

90mm....Wow! When I did mine I usedparts from a06 Wide Glide (triple clamps, axle, axle spacers and the wheel& tire) I shimmed my caliper with washers, inboard .090" (ninety thousands of an inch)90mm isabout three and a half inches. Are you sure you got that right?

.090" (ninety thousands of an inch)... YES, thats what I meant. 10 hour shift + 5:30Am + Heineken = bedtime for bonzo. I missed where you mentioned shimming the caliper. Night..... Dan
