Whats up guys after quite a while of looking and getting back into the stunt world this time on a harley im between a 99 lowrider and a 00 superglide iv heard the 00 88TC is different from the 99 88TC can anyone shed some light?
99 was the last year of the nosecone ignition. 2000 was the 1st year of the Ctankshaft trigger ignition.
I believe that is incorrect, my 99 has the same ignition module mounted under the seat on the primary side as the 00. It does have a cam position sensor under the timing cover however. The 99 uses Evo era single piston calipers vs the 4 piston on the 00+, and I dont recall if they switched to sealed bearings in 00 or 01.
The engine was almost all the same , the cam drive was updated ( recall ) , due snapped cam retension bolt issues , with that came updated bearings too . There was never a nose cone ignition but there was a cam position sensor for the first few years , during this time they figured that a cam position sensor was uneccessary and was no longer used , I think starting in late 01 or 02 , the cam sprocket was changed to a different part at the time they dropped the cam sensor . The rest of it is the same , including time proven timken bearings in the sprocket shaft side.
As for chassis differences the brakes are different , the wheel bearings are different , the timken servicable wheel bearings went away and starting in 00 und up vehicles being sealed bearings and with that , some vehicles started to be delivered with larger axle sizes , starting with touring models , Dyna's after that. .
The engines that had nosecone ignitions in 99 were softails and sportsters , the softail TC - B engine was released for the 2000 model year , injected or carb'd
