Default Dumb bolt conformation?!

Hi guys and girls. I am finally putting HD forward controls on my 07 street bob.

Are the OEM bolts that hold the mid pegs 1.25" Allen? My set does not go that large and I just want to go buy one Allen wrench.

Secondly, wish me luck on removing the T50 lock-tite bolts on the highway pegs. I got the left side off, but the right are not budging.

Ride safe. -shea

use a hot air gun or hair dryer on the lock tited bolts, get them good and hot may take a few minutes with the hair dryer, but it has always worked for me.

"Are the OEM bolts that hold the mid pegs 1.25" Allen? My set does not go that large and I just want to go buy one Allen wrench."

If you're using 3/8"-16 allen head bolts/screws to mount the peg brackets then you only need a 5/16" allen wrench which you probably already have in your toolbox.
The 1.25" mentioned probably refers to the length of the bolt/screw. Hope that helps.
