Trying to identify a Softail swing arm

Hi All. From a discussion here several months ago, I have thinking about putting a bigger swing arm on my 1999 FXSTC so I can go to a little wider tire. I found one on craigslist, but the seller doesn't know what year softail it came from. Can someone here identify the year this swing arm? Or is it even a stock harley part?

Thanks for any help

I would measure the width of the one you have then get the width of the one for sale and compare them.

Pretty sure that is off a rocker...I would bet is is too wide for an EVO frame...better get some measurements before you buy. A swingarm for an EVO frame that will allow a wider tire will have an offset like this..so the belt/chain goes between the frame and swingarm.
