Default 6 Speed Interchangability??
I need to replace the transmission in my 2014 FXDB. Are touring, soft tail and dyna 6 speeds all the same?


Thanks!

Guts are the same, cases are very different.

Are they really?
Main shaft, shift shaft? Bearings?
Sure a "gear is a gear" but are they the same?
(I'm not going to bother with researching 6th gear and multiple year/model cross-overs)

Gear set clusters are interchangeable far as I know, could be some variance depending on year. Mark from Baker would be the go to guy for specifics.
