Default solid rear rim fit question

hi I was wondering if a solid rear rim from a 92 fxstc would work on my 2000 fxst? I think the 92 has a 3/4 axle? any issues? thanks

should fit since both are 3/4" axle. I put a 3/4" deuce wheel on the back of my 94 fxstc just had to find the right spacers. The brake rotor/caliber worked fine, I didn't reuse the stock pulley since I had to get a thin one to clear the wider tire/wheel.

the bearings may be different types with the later using sealed an the older using the open kind you have to back. torque values may be different, not sure if the bearing pocket is the same size to interchange them.

Evo 92 vs Twin cam 2000. Bearings, spacers, axle will all be different.

I didn't have a problem with the axle, just the spacer....I used a deuce wheel on a 94. so I swapped the other way an it worked.
