Default Further forward control mid control question

A few years back I replaced my mid controls on my 2011 Dyna Super Glide Custom with floor boards. Now I am going back to mid controls. However Im going back to the further forward mid controls. I was trying to do my research before posting here and asking this question. Even though the mid controls are further forward by about 2 inches. Are the brake and shifter rods the same size as stock? I am looking at these picture https://www.harley-davidson.com/stor...id-control-kit ( I got them from my brother who is a Tucker Rocky/BIkes Choice dealer instead of Harley but the dimensions are the same) and it seams that the 2 inch extended feature on these mid controls are just making the shifter pedal , brake pedal and brackets a bit longer. However the mounting points for the shifter and brake linkage look as though they are the same as stock? They say 2 inch further mid controls because from the looks of it the brake pedal, shifter pedal and foot peg rests just seem to be 2 inches longer. While the mounting points for the shifter linkage arm and brake linkage arm look like they are stock length and mount to the same point as regular mid controls.

Any info would help.
Thanks in advance.

You are correct. The FF mids work with stock linkages.

Yes Further Forwards use the stock fittings.
Its the Rear Brake Pedal, Gear Shifter and mounts that are longer than the usual Mids.

Anybody know if these would work on the previous gen Dynas? HD shows fitment only going on 2006 and later. https://www.harley-davidson.com/stor...id-control-kit

BTW, if you look at the pic, you can see why it uses the stock brake rod. The position of the pivot point for the brake lever is unchanged. Only the lever is longer and the footpeg placement is moved forward.

I have them on my 2013 SuperGlide. They bolt right up and are just a bit longer than reg mids.

2017 Street Bob. I have a 30" inseam. I felt cramped.

I had the further-forward and the Mini Floorboard Kit Large kits installed.

The further-forward kit is awesome, the Floorboard Kit Large lets me move my feet fore/aft without any issues.

OMG what a difference it has made for me!!!
