Tim, I had a 150 on the rear of my 99 with the stock swing arm and pulley. I now have a 180 on there with an 18X5.5 wheel and stock swing arm, but changed the pulley to a 70 tooth and a ¾ belt.

Mimo, that sled is pimp!

Nope, not without further and more expensive mods. From '99 to '00 some changes took place in the bearing's geometry (form) and also in the axle diameter (from 3/4" to 1").

I know the bearing size is different, but they can be changed to the 3/4" I need ... right?

I have a 2000 Indian Chief that someone put 1999 fatboy wheels on and I really like spokes on that bike. Anyway, I found the deluxe wheels at a good price and wanted to go that way..... just thought I would ask on here. The 1999 had tapered bearings and the later model has roller. I know I can swap them out, along with the center spacer in the hub. My biggest concern was the width of the new wheel hub....But looks like it stayed the same, even though Harley uses a wider tire on the 09's.
Thanks Mimo for the response.

*****, How and where did you get that flush mount brake light? I have a 2010 Lo and want to smooth up my fender and was considering removing the brake light and plate and putting it at the axle nut. Promblem is I gotta fill that hole and was thinking paint and body. But if I could modify the hole in the fender to fit what you have that would be slick! Can you help?
