Default RE: Forward install ?

If I were to cut mine out I think that I would cut it by hand using a hack-saw blade as to not heat up the old shift shaft and cause damage to the gaskets between the primary covers.

The gaskets that I am refering to are between the inner and outer primary covers and form a sort of tunnel throughprimary coverswhere the existing shift shaft passes through.

Heat won't be a problem, lube the blade with cutting oil and go
slow.

I agree with that statement. With the tool for locking the sprockets, it
wouldnt be hard to do it the right way. I wouldn't want the mid shifter
on it, even if you could dress it up or hide it.

I bought forwards for my 07 Dyna. The kit is different from the earlier Dyna's.
I didn't want to pull off the inner and outer primaries so I ordered the shifter shaft cap and the bracket to hold the old shift rod to the motor case so it doesn't flop around.
These two pieces were from the earlier Dyna kit.
Question is this: when I back out the bolt in the motor case to mount the bracket, do I need to take it all the way out to reapply loctite? Or can I just back it out enough for the bracket and just re-tighten?
Also, does anyone know the torque for that bolt?
Thanks.

You worry too much.

KC99......JUST BOUGHT AN 07 FXDC SUPER GLIDE CUSTOM LAST SATURDAY, WOULD LIKE TO ADD FORWARD CONTROLS ALSO, BUT THE HD DEALERSHIP WAS GOING TO CHARGE AROUND A THOUSAND BUCKS INCLUDING PARTS AND FOUR HOURS LABOR. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THE INNER AND OUTER PRIMARIES HAD TO BE REMOVED. ALSO WOULD LIKE ANY INPUT ON SOME AFTERMARKET PIPES, STOCK PIPES ARE WAY TO QUITE. LOOKED AT THE SCREAMIN EAGLE PIPES FOR THE 07, BUT TO BE HONEST THEY ARE REALLY UGLY AND DON'T SOUND MUCH BETTER THAN STOCK. THEY TOLD ME IN ORDER TO ADD ANY OTHER TYPE OF PIPES THE COMPUTER HAD TO BE CHANGED/REPROGRAMED OR WHAT EVER. AND AGAIN WAS LOOKING AT A COOL THOUSAND DOLLARS INCLUDING THE PIPES, COMPUTER AND LABOR. WHAT FORWARD CONTROL KIT DID YOU PURCHASE FOR YOURS? KEEP US UP TO DATE ON THIS.
A G for standard forwards? Wow, they saw you coming a mile away didn't they?
