Docking Hardware for Tour Pak Question

The rack on the tour pak will work fine with HD's detachable mouting hardware. The correct hardware, however, is different from the hardware used for the detachable backrest shown in the photo you posted.
You can buy the mounting hardware, part no. 53804-06, and just use the chrome hoops portion of the kit and you'll be fine. Your tour pak rack is an obsolete version and it uses parts from both the HD mounting hardware kits (one for backrest and solo rack; and, one for two-up detach tour pak and detachable luggage rack) currently offered. If you have the hardware mounted for the detachable passenger backrest, then you have the hardware on the bike for the forward mounting points of the rack on the tour pak. The kit with the part no. provided will proved what you need for the rear attachment points.

There is a difference between the older and newer tourpaks. The one you have uses flat plates to mount the tour pack while the newer ones have a molded in round piece that a round bar mounts to. see photo
I bought the Kuryakyn relocator kit http://www.kuryakyn.com/index.cfm/go...ID/30/IMID/845
to move the tour pak back 2 inches. Works great. The picture shows the stock piece.
