2002 Road King Wheel Bearings ??
I bought a pair of 2002 Road King 16x3.5 spoke wheels on ebay to use on a custom project. They don't have any bearings, spacers, etc. in the hubs. Does anyone know what exactly goes in the hub? From what I've been able to figure out so far it looks like the sealed bearings are normally used. It seems as though a spacer of some sort should be needed between the bearings. Do I need 1" bearings or can I install 3/4" hardware? I'm trying to get this bike done on a low budget, but maybe the best thing is to bring the wheels done to the local Harley shop and have them install what's needed and mount the tires, etc. Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Zel

You need 2 1"sealed bearings & 1 spacer per wheel. I use a Jims tool to R & R bearings. If you have no ideawhat you are doing, take it to your local shop. The bearings are kind of importaint and you need a proper spacer. I make carbon fiber wheels for FL's & I kind of know what I am talking about.
