Help needed with 1999 Evo Fatboy floorboards set up
Hey guys,
can anyone tell me exactly what's involved in converting a 1999 Evo Fatboy with forward controls and foot pegs back to the stock set up with floorboards?
Obviously the floorboards are needed and the mounting brackets, but do I need to buy a different rear brake master cylinder or any of the other stock parts? shifter linkages? Etc.
Just want an idea of how many parts in going to need to purchase and how expensive it is buying genuine HD parts.
A lot of the parts you will need are obsolete and no longer available from the MoCo.
I saw several aftermarket offerings during a quick search, but you seem to be in luck. I also found several offerings for reasonable prices of used, good condition mounts & footboards on eBay.
Use the Harley Online parts finder, look up the part numbers of the brackets, footboards, Et al, that you will need. Compare them to what you have to make sure they are different, then go shopping... Did I mention to break out the credit card?
