I'm about 80% sure that will work ... I don't think those years' Softail primary covers had a cast cover over the chain tensioner inspection hole (where the mid-control shifter shaft came through) ... so, I think you could use your cover .... You still running mid's or went to forward controls ...?

Not a 100%, but pretty sure ....

2002 softail had an inspection cover.
although so should a 2002 dyna.
I've never known them to be interchangeable.
Softails and dynas are 2 different beasts.

I was thinking that they would be interchangeable, because when I was investigating the purchase of my belt drive primary the part for those years (as referenced by HDTech74) were the same P/N for both Softail and Dynas ....

Just wasn't sure if there might have been a slight difference in the bolt pattern or the inspection cover on the primary covers ... think maybe that came later ....
