Best explanation Bry. Who is the maker of those hard bags on your Wide Glide?
Here is a closeup of the docking post. The inner side has a wider flange that makes it easy to attach the bracket. All four bolts are 2-3/4 inch long and the posts are 11/16 inch.

Here's what I have
Here's a pic of my Easy Bracket saddlebag docking posts.
They look like 320flyr's, but without the stand-off.
I want to fit my saddlebags and a QD sissy bar, not just a sissy bar. When I ordered the brackets originally, I had to choose ones for detachable sissy bars or not. I already had non-detach hardware on, so I chose that option. I was wondering what the docking posts looked like for having both the QD sissy bar and the QD saddle bags.
Combining what I have with what 320flyr has in order to fit both just doesn't look right. The rounded end of it wouldn't mate with mine.
Thanks for all the replies, but I'm still at a loss as to what I need to get things to work.

I see that the two mounting posts (sissy bar and bags) meet with flat to flat, that's what I was thinking they should do. That's why 320's just don't look right.
Do you have the HD QD docking hardware? I think thats what's missing... Take a look at the installation instructions on the MoCo parts website and see if it makes any more sense after reading it. The QD hardware should just slide on the long bolts and sit between the strut and the easy bracket mount.
