Softtail exhaust on a dyna

I found a goof deal on a 2-1 but its off a 2004 softtail, does anyone know if it would line right up and fit onto my 2005 lowriders with mid controls?

I put v+h longssots from my wife’s 05 Dyna on her 04 Fx springer. I bought a Softail bracket from V+H and drilled one hole in it to mount. Everything bolted up.Yes it can be done

It will bolt right up to the heads but you’ll need to figure out how to mount it to the frame.

Do not mount your exhaust to the frame.
Dyna exhaust are to be mounted to the engine and transmission only. The Frame does not move with the engine during operation. If an Exhaust is mounted to the frame, it with break the exhaust somewhere.
