Default Peg Tricks

Your new pegs should be the same width as your stock pegs since they are Harley Pegs. Take your Spring Steel Tension Spacers out and take a pair pliers, insert the ends of the spacers into jaws of pliers and bend slightly to give them more tension. If you try putting 2 spacers in they will not fit. If that doesn't work you can always buy new ones, they are the least expensive items that Harley sells. Good Luck.
