Default Rocker Side Plate Options
I am looking to move my plate to a side mount. Have seen the ones from Heartland, Demon's, and Dennis Kirk, but looking for an axle mount one without any lights. Really like the Roto-Plate Jr., but too spendy. Anyone know of any other options, or have fabbed up your own that works well?

Here is what I got. then i mounted with the roto axle mount..

Radiatz light frame $26.99

Mounting plate $69.00

You may find the frame cheaper if you look, hope it gives you a base line.

Thanks. Those are some good options I will look into. What have you guys done about the original plate bracket in the fender?

So I got around to moving my plate. Temporarily I took the original plate mount, bent it, and put it on the belt cover. Eventually I will spring for the Roto Plate Jr. Another temporary fix will be getting a HD logo to cover the holes in the rear of the fender. Over the winter I plan to fill in the holes and have the rear fender re-painted.

Joe I really like the way your plate mount looks so I ordered everything you posted but the top down bolt seems too short to mount the plate the way you did and swims in the hole for the bracket. What did you do to make it bolt up? Thanks
