Default Shift Lever

02 Dyna Wide Glide.
Has anyone had success getting a lock nut underneath the lever? I looked under and didn't see a way. Mine is currently stripped. Thanks.

Put the bolt in yer pocket. Now go to the closest hardware store. Look at the nuts & bolts. Take out yer bolt and find a longer one, the find a lock nut to match.

So. I haven't attempted yet but considering that I can't seem to get the nut on from below, I should be able to get it on from the side? Thanks again.

You need to get an Allen head bolt so it will fit in there for part #6 If that does not work, buy a new part # 39, $62.00

Or are you talking about part #32?

You mean 32? I'll probably end up tapping the linkage first. Next will be removing the primary. Just looking for a quick fix if at all possible.

Looks like adding a nut "might" hit the primary cover when down shifting. Below quote is from another thread = no need to remove the primary. Maybe remove the lever, and if it has enough material you can repair the threads with a Heli coil, Keensert, or whatever.

Couple of questions:

Is the bolt hole stripped or the part of the linkage that goes around the splined shaft?
How did that bolt get stripped?
Why are you showing a flanged bolt and not the original bolt?
