Default Cruise arms

Well after doing about 5 hours of reading old posts I finally figured out that I want the Kuryakyn Mark IV cruise arms. Went with the IV's because I moved by boards and the III's wouldn't work. I ordered them about 5 minutes ago. Now I have to get the foot pegs. If you guys would be kind enough to spare me reading for 5 more hours I have a question. I have the nostalgic brake pedal pad and shifter pegs. I don't see a match for them in the H D book. Would anyone who has the similar set up please let me know which highway pegs you have to match the nostalgic look. Even something as simple as this, isn't. Almost lost a wrestling match with myself over the fact that Kuryakyn says the cruise arms won't work with an oil cooler and I was thinking that the voltage regulator was an oil cooler. Duh. Glad I thought that through before I was stupid enough to ask. Thanks

I just went with stock pegs, I think they look retro, and when I scrape the rubber off they are cheap to replace, the cruise arms are great I powder coated mine black.

These are the Chrome and Rubber Collection footpegs. I think they are the large size. Matches the Nostalgia brake just fine.

If you did order them make sure you get the extended version. The standard or shorter version are worthless IMO

do I understand you moved your boards and you say the Mark IIIs won't work? shouldn't matter where the floorboards are - forward, stock or where ever, since the IIIs mount directly to the boards.

Thanks for the replies guys. That's what makes this forum so great. You can get answers within a day. Aviator and harley heaven I put the kury relocator brackets 7528 on my 03 heritage which moved the boards out and forward 1 inch. A great mod that let's me move my long 36 inch legs around. According to kuryakyn the cruise arms III and the standard lengh version of the mark IV's won't wok with the relocator brackets. My guess would be the front relocator bracket would interfere with the mounting of the III's to the bottom of the boards and the front of the floorboard would hit the standard version of the IV's because to boards were moved 1 inch forward. If you look up the relocator bracket 7529 on the kuryakyn site it is written in the description of the brackets Anyway I'm happy that I decided to get the IV's so I can stretch out alittle more. Thanks again guys.
