Default How would you fit a windshield: Dyna WG

I have tried this question a few ways, so now I am trying another as I have not yet found an answer. So, I have a wide glide front end on a 2002 Dyna Low Rider. And, I have a wide glide windshield (bought used) from the 2003 Anniversary HD wide glide. My front fork tubes are 39mm. There is NO screw/bolt on the upper triple-tree.

My windshield bracket mounts fit perfectly outside the fork tubes as I hold it up to the forks. Nobody seems to know what clamps to buy to put this shield on my cycle. Does anyone have a few suggestions of how to proceed? Thanks.

When I did my wide conversion, I used the original windshield from my lowrider. I just reversed the bracket arms on the windshield and that gave me the additional width to make it work.

Thanks DiggerD, but I have the width as the shield I have is from a wideglide. The problem is the tube mounting clamps, not the brackets on the shield.

Oh, OK, give me a little time and I can take a pic of the brackets. They are the earlier style brackets that you need. They just clamp around the tubes and have the screw/bolt part that the windshield hooks on to.

you have a wide glide conversion and not a wide glide front end I guess...you could get a handlebar mounted shield sportech and a couple others out there.
edit: unsure if they will work with t-bars.

i have a National shield on my wg and it has clamps on the tubes. Get hold of National and see if you can buy just the clamps and bolts. You may need to play with the spacing but that's no biggie---jack

After researching, the Sportechs look like the simplest install, cleanest look, and quickest tool-less removal.
