I don't what size your axles are, but make sure you get bearing that are the same size. Other than that it should be a pretty straight forward swap as long as you get a wheel with the same size hub. I don't know what the front fender looks like on a nostalgia, but make sure the wheel fits under the fender without rubbing. If it is the same as a heritage fender it will fir, if it is a different fender it might now.

Fender will be fine in that case. Just do a little reach on bearings and such. From most of what I read the wheels come in 3 year ranges. 1986-1999, 2000-2006, and 2007 and up. If I remember correctly, I actually think the bearings are the same diameter on the pre 2000 softails, it is just timkin bearings as opposed to sealed. What kind of wheel are you looking for?

Clearance wise you'll be fine with the stock Heritage fender.
