Late model swingarm ?
What do I need to do to fit a swingarm off of a 2007 streetglide to my 95 Electraglide . I have in the grip of my greasy fingers a swingarm, axle, caliper, master cyliderand I'm looking at a tire and wheel on craigslist for 75.00 Is this doable ? The wheel is a 16x3 off of a dyna can I make that work? I can machine my own spacers , so that is not an issue . Any info on this would be greatly apreciated . I'm thinking that the dual piston caliper would be a great upgrade from the on - off switch action of the single caliper. Opinions wanted ? What would you do ?

I would also mention that I have the front calipers and master cylinder and am thinking about tha t upgrade as well. My understanding at this point would be that I would have to fab brackets to mount the new calipers to my forks or change the lowers. Any info or validation on this would be apreciated. I must add that I am not dissapointed with the single piston dual disk front brakes . I just think the back sucks . That being said If I could upgrade both ends , would that be worth doing? I'm thinking if it is something I am capable of without spending a lot , Why not ? Again opinions are apreciated .

Yea I've seen his brackets . He made some stuff for my rigid , I like his work. I got to meet him in person at the 2004 Smokeout. But the caliper brackets I could make easily.
