Road King windshield question
I have a new Road King Special that I installed a HD windshield on. Since it doesn’t come with a windshield stock, I had to buy the studs, acorn nut and rubber grommet kit. My problem is the windshield bracket doesn’t want to slide into the top rubber grommets (or whatever they’re called) easily. The bottom goes in fine, but it seems like I may be missing a spacer to shim out the bottom rubber things because the bracket seems to bend a bit when I try fit the windshield on.
Can someone take a look at the rubber things that the windshield bracket slips into and tell me if there is any spacer or washer between the rubber piece and the nacelle please?
I appreciate it.

hard to say what you've tried since we're not standing there, but make sure the bottom bracket seats all the way, a good firm push is needed, before trying to roll the top in. But you shouldn't have to loosen / tighten the studs to get anything to fit, it's an on/off process, nothing more, made for quick detach (which you already know)

Im installing epaulet lights tomorrow so the studs come out and are replaced with bolts. I’ll try it then. I’ll post some photos if it doesn’t work out as I’m hoping,
Thanks
