Default Can I install a FL style rear brake lever on my FXST?

I recently installed some aftermarket floor boards and I'd like the brake pedal to be a little higher after adjusting the height of the boards where I like them. It doesn't appear that I can adjust the height of the lever. Looking at FL style bike with floor boards it looks as if the brake lever is straighter up and higher, just what I want. Anybody have info on this? Thanks

I did this as well. My bike is a 96 and I went with a 2010 Street Glide take off. I had to mill off one of the prongs and relocate the hole for the clevis pin. Not too hard. I did this for a buddies bike as well. Works great.
