Just bought a set of the HD long angled highway peg mounts 50829-07A. Went to install them last night and ran into a little problem. I can't get the main bolt out to be able to open the clamp and install them on the engine guard. It is almost like they are welded in there. Anyone else have theirs ship with the bolt in there that tight??? I tried getting it out but I don't want to use too much force and snap a bolt.

 

I had the same problem. Ended up loosening it up after using alot of force. I'm 5'8" and after putting it on the bar, couldn't find a position where the pegs weren't in the way. Did't use them after all, and would have opted to purchase the one with shorter arms.

 

Finally got them off. About killed my shoulder doing it. Why the fukk would they ship these things with the bolt already threaded with red loctite???

 

I had the same problem. Had to put it in a vise. Jeez it pizzed me off.

 

Izzo did yours have red loctite on it??? Still boggles the mind that they would thread a bolt with red loctite applied to a brand new part.

 

Yes it did.

 

That sure doesn't make any sense at all. Are they a non USA made item?

 

Don't know but mine were the same way!!!

 

Mine were easily taken out and had yellow locktite on them.
