Turn signal mounted on strut
finally got signals tucked in on the strut, used the blank plate harley sells to cover up the ugly part of the strut and the cover that came with the layback frame and turn signal relocate kit, added a 1.5 long 5/16 bolt and boooyaa there they are

RE: Turn signal mounted on strut
Nice, I wonder why more people don't do that as opposed to buying Harleys shorter turn signal stalks? Mine are bolted directly to the frame rails.
RE: Turn signal mounted on strut
very nice... how about a pic of it jus a bit futher back... i am at work and want to see what the whole thing would look like... i keep tearing up my wires under there with my 180 tire and have tucked them away 100 times insulating the wire wrapping it zip tie out of the way, replaced with thiner wire, you name it i have tried it, but with as low as i sit and as wide as that tire is it keeps catching it... i need to move them but do not want to drill the fender, or loose the detachable gear... i am pulling off my strut covers to do a bit more powder coating and thought that would be a great idea!

RE: Turn signal mounted on strut
I don't know if this is possible with your fender or wiring but my wires are completely run outside the fender under the frame rails.I was originally going to run them under those metal strips that run inside the fender but it was actually easier to run them outside.There is nothing inside my rear fender except the bolts that hold my turn signals on and those metal strips I mentioned above.
