Interested in Dyna Glide models with FL front ends?
#32
I have seen that set up for the narrow glide in literature but I believe they are difficult to find.

A couple of notes WRT Rene's Softail parts diagrams -
I reused my stock FXD front brake caliper and stock brake disc with the FLST lower slider fork leg and Heritage spoke wheel ... no need to buy replacements for those items ....
Although Rene posted the Softail frame showing neck cups, the ones in your FXD frame should work just as well ... as long as there is not excessive wear or other known defects, there should be no need to do anything with your frame/neck cups except to cut off (down) the fork stop block on the front of the FXD frame ....
THX for posting up that info Rene!

Now if I only could find an OCR program to make the cross-reference list...
Any suggestions from your side, guys?

[quote=SURFOR Chop;6347653]The 1950's Sportsters had a set of tins like the Heritage and Fat Boys sport but for a narrow glide front end ... the speedometer fit into a gauge mount built into it that I believe was atop or just aft of the risers ... if I'm not mistaken, the fork tubes sported fork gators (rubber boots) ....
See attached ... there are a couple of sources where reproduction tins can be had ....
It's not quite the same thing, but is similar ... kind of conveys the same idea ....
I neglected to thank you for that SURFOR Chop, but that's not the one I want, thanks anyway.
