Installing Fat Bob exhaust on FXDC: Questions
I'm finally getting around to installing the Fat Bob exhaust system on my FXDC. I've checked and it appears this is a simple bolt on replacement. The rear exhaust bracket is the same part (65696-08), so no new brackets are needed--contrary to what I used to think.
Other than getting new exhaust gaskets for the header pipes, is there anything I need to know or watch out for before I attempt this? My plan is to simply remove my existing exhaust system as a unit and install the Fat Bob system as a unit.

What's the difference in the brackets? The Fat Bob system only uses the rear bracket and it's the same part number for all Dyna models--65696-08.

It doesn't exactly work quite like that ....
After you remove the old exhaust gasket, slip the new gasket into the exhaust port where the old one came out ... the surface where the gasket mates doesn't really fit 'over' the head pipe, but kind of crushes it into the port as you torque down the nuts onto the exhaust studs ....
You'll see better as you are in the process of installing them ....
