Yikes... Holy Extendo, batman



It appears above that the sliders, wheel, brake cal and rotor were the originals for that 2000-03 "Custom" model

The forks in your second pic are 1999-earlier which use a sliding caliper that are the same from any HD model line...sportster, dyna, softail, Touring

You probably won't be able to use that 2000-later Narrowglide wheel in that 99-earlier fork because it is slightly wider so the caliper won't align properly with the rotor and the rotor bolts will rub the sliders

.

 

Teachable moment:
how can you tell? The caliper mount?

 

Yes...now engrave that image in your mind

 

so I need to dig up a 99 or earlier caliper?

thank you all for trying to help by the way, this is exactly what I mean by I check things out before I do something and screw myself

 

i though so. But wasn't sure. Learneded

 

Interesting...somehow this must fit in

Yup.
same bike she's finally asking questions and letting those with knowledge help her

 

Has something in your situation changed?

Otherwise why don't you swap all this (minus the axle)

(Or get another set of these sliders if you don't want to remove)



For this

The local Guru who I would trust with my soul looked at everything and TOLD her her best n wisest way to go would be to just sell the left overs n put stock back on instead of piece meal bits n pieces.

 

Unfortunately it sounds like he's not much of a GURU

That swap is easy
