Default Springer Front Wheels

Hey guys , I've got a Harley Springer front end off of a 1996 FXSTS - has the front caliper with it . From what I can see the axle on the 1996's and the 2002's both have 3/4" bearings / axle .

My question is , is there any reason a front wheel off of a 2002 Fxsts Springer wouldn't work on a 1996 Fxsts front , as long as the 1996 also has a 3/4 axle ??

The wheel is 21" x 3 .

Swapping the front on my 2007 FXST .....

Thanks in advance for any info .

Should all work, only differences might be hub offset, and spaces, even if that's the case it'd be little work to make it bolt up
