Harley saddlebag install question
Waiting for the brown truck to arrive. Ordered the regular type saddlebags and turn-signal relocate kit. Any issues with this install? Should I get the jack ready?
Thanks Greg 07 fxdb

The jack may help you out because of the wiring work you'll have to do with the relocation job, just read the instructions real good and don't get in a hurry with it.

I had no issues, but I would also recommend the jack.
I just happened to have it up and my rear wheel off when installing, so that made it way easier.
But when playing around with my lighting in the rear with out a jack after that, itwas tight.
The frustrations without lifting the bike may not be worth it.

Do yourself a favor and don't use the relocation kit if it is the one that moves them to the license plate area. It is cheap and no fun to install. Better off drilling holes in fenders and mounting sigs there. Someone here has done it, wish I seen it before I moved mine, looks 100% better than the reloc.
