I have a 2005 Fatboy that was converted to a bagger by previous owner. Pipes now run one on each side of bike. I have tried to get fabrication drawings from 3 different exhaust companies and requested the stock measurements from HD so I can figure out what mufflers will match the mount locations- nobody has an answer.
wondering if someone here has measurements of tip to mount hole so I can compare and figure out what to buy

 

I can give you mine which is OEM and should be the same as your 2005. Tip of the muffler end to which mounting hole? There is one for each muffler at different mount points.

 

Just end of pipe to first hole, first hole to second hole would be great. If it’s close to what I have it will be a pretty good guess that he built this thing for OEM dimensions and I can buy mufflers that fit stock- if it’s nowhere near what I have… we’ll I guess I’m buying a welder lol
mine is 9” to first hole, 3” hole to hole, 25” overall length
thanks in advance

 

Ok - let's see if this helps you.
First, there are two mufflers. The top one extends a little further back / out to the rear than the lower second muffler.
Top muffler = end tip to the mounting bracket which is on the lower backside of the muffler is 12 1/2" tip to the center hole.
Lower muffler = end tip to the mounting bracket which is on the upper backside of the muffler is 14 1/2" tip to the center hole.
Center to center the two mount holes are 4 1/2" apart and they are on the same frame bracket horizontally opposed.
Hope the helps you.
