What are you using for the tank lift and the bracket that holds the coil?
And btw that is a lot of luggage in the background!

i am using the flat plate of a u bolt pipe bracket. the same one joebotics used in his "how too" thread.
I used the bracket that held the coil in place under all the plastic.
I pretty much followed the thread that joebotics made with a few tweaks.
I am struggling to find the right plug wires, but when i do i will post pics of that side.
yes there are and they are filled with the left sides of vans.

The AC is a Licks prototype. It has a genuine K&N element in it. The filter is being tested out before having them made up. Hopefully when the testing is over, they will be priced well below a Joker Maching unit and include the K&N element. Also I believe licks is having a black breather kit made as well.

This "Iron 883 Only" thread, as if the Iron was something other than just another model of the Sportster, and if sayin Iron & 883 isn't redundant, was started by someone who hasn't been around here on the forum for 6 months, and the average post count for the participants in this thread is less than 50.

If'in you guys in this "exclusive" thread have real questions about your Sportster that you want educated answers to, you might try starting your own thread here is the Sportster section since those of us that actually know something about Sporties don't pay much attention to this "exclusive club" thread.

That is all..........
Well, like you, I waited a while to respond to this.

There is not one Iron owner, myself included, that came over to your house and made you click a link.

You're not interested? You don't have an Iron? Don't click it. That simple. I see tons of threads I have no interest in, and you know what I DON'T do? Post in them.

This thread didn't get to 70 pages for no reason.

And if you respond to this, then I just know that all you're doing is reading a thread that you have no interest in and that you're just trying to see what kind of response you get from us "whippersnappers".

Don't worry, we're fine. Please resume pontificating about how things were "in your day" whilst stroking your gray beard. Someone will come along and stand next to you at the local Wawa or gas station and discuss how things were better way back yonder.
