Default Making highway pegs

I am thinking about making my own highway peg Side plate mounts since I would powder coat them black. Some one that has one off of their FXDC could they make a full size trace and email me ?
Thanks !

I made a set about 4 years ago, wasn't too hard and they worked pretty well. I used two 1/2 inch drive breaker bars for the peg mounts and welded them to my home built plates.

I've got a set of the adjustable type I just pulled off my 07 SB when I went to forwards. I can measure and trace them but I can't scan them for email until I go in to the office tomorrow. And I can't promise the scan will result in actual size - never tried this so I don't know if the scanner compresses or anything.

I can wait. If you put a dimension on the drawing of a hole size I can verify the scale once I get the drawing.
Do you want to sell them ?

One pic of the brackets, one of the tracing w/ dimension. Click to enlarge - let me know if you have questions.

I think I'll hang on to the them for now, just in case. Thanks for asking.
