Im still a newbie so I guess I have to wait for mods to approve my photo posts.

Thats the link but it messed it up when I posted it, that's just to a google photo album but im assuming you can link outward here? If you replace all the *** with ******* it works

Well I went to check my tire pressure today and noticed my valve stem was on the wrong side. Pulled the wheel, flipped the tire, put it all back together and its all good to go.

Saw this thread about it too now: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/new-r...tallation.html

I was going to mentioned to you about the wheel being reversed (flipped), but then I read your following statement and thought you had covered that.

... I tried flipping the spacers, flipping the wheel and flipping the spacers again but nothing winds up even.

Glad it worked out

Because you're somewhat new to this, I just want to make sure you torqued the front wheel back in order according to your Service Manual so you haven't forced the lower legs together, off-setting the caliper.
