Default Toolboxes Installed

The Dr. got them to me yesterday so I thought I'd pop 'em on this morning. The right one almost installed itself, I just threw nuts and bolts on the bottom on both sides since I took the passenger pegs off.

The left box sits further back because of the primary and hit the saddlebag so I drilled two new mounting holes in the bracket and one in the box to drop it a couple inches and back a little. I made them big so there would be some wiggle room for final tweaking. Box to bracket is only a 2 bolt mount now. Covered the unused holes in the box with foil tape and threw a couple of spare chrome bolts in the exposed holes on the bracket.

Nice. Love those pipes by the way.

Also had to tweak my tool box. Thought they were all the same. Had to do some creative adjustments to my bracket to get it to fit. I've got the Cruztools teardrop tool kit in mine. A very tight fit. I need to get the locked changed on mine. Too paranoid about getting ripped off.

Looks good! I like the way you have the left one sitting down and to the rear of the bike.

May have to get one for myself

I dig them. I wish I could get a set on my Dyna. They look great.

Default tool kit

I have one on the right side of the bike but cant run one on the left. If your running duels like Samson or Vance and Hines forget the left the pipes are in the way.

Those boxes look great. I'm trying to figure how to put one on the right side of my 2010 FLSTC. Please tell my about that exhaust system. That is very neat.

Thanks, Roadhouse made the pipe but they went tango uniform in Nov. Sad, I bought it sight unseen and am very happy with them.

The left box is definitely a no-go with duals. There should not be a problem on an flstc right side. Should go right on, especially with stock bags. Just pay attention to the spacer kit for passenger pegs if you have them.
