Help urgent !!! 88" 2006 dyna
 

Hello guys , I ordered the stage 2 big bore kit with the se 203 cams that are included in the kit direct from my dealer . I was told these cams would work with my 2006 dyna with has the hydraulic cam chain tensioners and different style chain than other models that had the 88" in 2006 . The parts guy told me I was wrong and assured me they would fit. Well now the motor is tore down and these cams are clearly the old style cam as I expected so I called the parts dept up and let them know the cams in the kit were not correct for this bike so they argued with me and they're trying to say the previous owner must have upgraded the spring loaded tensioners to a hydraulic cam plate set up and that's why they're not fitting

What I need from anyone here I proof or some kind of figment guy showing the se 203 cam with a figment section that says some thing like (fits all 2000-2006 twin cam 88" , except 06 dyna)

I'm only going by memory so someone may either confirm or deny this, but I believe the first year for hydraulic tensioners used link chains on the front and back side of the cam plate. The roller style chain didn't appear until 2007 (on both sides of the cam plate),

The SE conversion kit, would have a roller chain from the pinion to the rear cam and a link chain (the original) on the back of the cam plate between the two.

It's still early yet and I haven't had all my coffee so I'm not completely sure what your trouble is. It sounds like you've been given cams for a roller chain when you have a link chain set up.

Notice the difference between the two sets of cams. The sprockets on the 07 are for roller chains. The sprockets on the 06 are for link chains, front and back.

The kit also has a foot note in the service manual for the requirements to fit the 2006 dyna. Ask the dealer what that foot note says.
Search the kit number, it will show you.

Is this that kit? #25284-11. Go to 'more info' for the instructions.

The 06 Dyna is the first year of the new hydraulic tensioners and auto primary chain tensioner, Harley only choose the Dyna as the 1st year to try these changes on a larger audience. As others have mentioned, ask your parts person to read the footnote and learn the differences between the products they sell. One of my pet peeves are salesman, parts people and service managers who don't understand or know the differences between the different models.

The part number of the kit is 29859-04b if you read the foot note at the bottom of the kit it shows fitment for years and models found on this page here http://www.boardtrackerharleyonline....ge_580440596=5 this link shows my kit with the exact part number

In that foot note it says 2000-2005 dyna and all over 2000-2006 88" twin cams

Well my bike is an 06 dyna wich I told the parts guy ,

I'll also include a picture of my stock cams (top) and the cams from the kit (bottom) and u can se mine have the teeth for the newer style chain found on 07+ Bikes

Unless that foot note says you have to swap to the later cams, that kit won't work and you should return it. You'll most likely have to purchase the parts separately. Pick a combo buy the cams, some pistons and bore your jugs or talk to a sponsor for a recommendation.

I agree with Lt1-xs

I'd take the kit back and start over now that you know what you have. That said, you might get in there and find a non stock bore the way things are going.

I'll toss something out here to think about. The OP could work a swap with the dealer, swap the 203 cams which are wrong, for 204 cams for the correct fitment. IMO, the 204 is better than the 203, I've had builds with both.
