rigid mounted fender to a softail swingarm
Anyone have any advice on how to go about doing this.
I want the rear fender to sit low with the rear tire.
I have been lurking on several forums, but not a lot of luck yet.
I am going for a rigid frame look but with a softail feel.
on my stock 200 rear tire, or maybe a 240/250 max tire
I know I will need to weld bungs on the swingarm...
But I am not sure about the seat
thanx for any and all help

to get the low fender you want your right it would be a rigid mount.however you will need a sprung seat beacaue the fender will move with the wheel.youcan go with a strutless fender setup but it won't hug the wheel as much.here's a couple of Russell Mitchells' exile trains to give you an idea. ones an 09 andthe other an 05.brass ***** bobbers has some also but they are more of a bones look

Shadetree rear fender moving around
I just installed my shadetree rear fender and it's a little shady. The top mount wants to slide to the left and rub on the right side of my tire. And the bottom mount...well I'm nervous it will come loose. The bolts, holes, and bottom of the swing arm don't line up well for a proper, snug fit. I'm going to weld it on tomorrow unless someone has a remedy.
