I am new to the H.D. Forum. At the age of 52 I'm converting from a life long metric guy to American Iron. What better way to start than with this basket case that I picked-up from a friend. I live in Mobile, Alabama, and LOVE the freedom of the ride! Glad to be part of the group.
I'll need all the help I can get I'm sure. But with this site and YouTube I may be able to pull it off. Hope you guys don't place limits on questions..haha

No limit on questions, but do your homework first.
When you ask something, be sure to give all the information available and a picture or 2 when possible. There will be some good information here, if you ask the right questions and listen to the right people. Also there are sub-Forums for Shovels and Evos. That Kicker didn't come off of a 97, they were discontinued by 87 and earlier than that on some models. You may have lots of mis-matched parts.
