Dual Disk Question (I know, I know)
Doing a conversion on my 03 super glide to a dual disks. I've already read a ton of forums arguing as to whether this is pointless or not. Only issue I'm having is the fork sliders. I figured the right slider off of an 03 fxdx or fxdxt would do the trick. However I've noticed the part numbers for the left slider, which I assumed would be the same part number (same year, same side, both 39mm, both have correct calliper/fender mounts), are completely different. I'm hoping one of you guys could explain why, and potentially whether that means I would need to buy a set of lowers rather than just the right side.

On that Low Rider above?
An Original Equipment Narrow-glide, Dual Disc, Laced spoke 19 x 2.5" wheel
In Regards to 19" Laced Spoke Front Wheels ...
The Narrow-glides (05-earlier)came with Dual Disc Hubs if it came with Dual Cals otherwise you got Single Disc Hubs, Whereas with 06-later Mid-glides there was no such thing as Single Disc Hubs ... they all come as Dual Disc Hubs.

Just took a look at my front wheel. Unless I miss my guess, there's a plate on the right side of the hub that I can remove and install in its place a second disc! (Profile rim). So, now all I need is a matching caliper and master. Anyone have the part numbers for them? My (left) caliper is 44046-00D. (Or do I need to replace both)?
