Question crossbones front fender removel???

Im thinking of removing my front fender on my springer front end.

Does anyone know if I need a spacer for the axle to take place of the right side support????

I have the front tire off and can easily remove the support just not sure if I need a spacer or can I reinstall everything without the fender and support.

Thanks
I have the repair manual, and I have searched before I posted.

Yes, you will need a either spacer or cut the arm off the fender support. There are a couple threads on here that can give you more detail. One of the posters on them is goes by Skeezmachine, I think.

Yupper you need the spacer. What I did since I wasn't going to put the fender back on was cut the long piece off it and used it over.
