We just installed passenger pegs (the stealth ones) on my heritage, they were a PITA to line up the peg and D ring, lots of hammering, not to mention one snap ring went flying and disappeared onto the driveway never to be seen again. Had to go to Auto Nation and get a pack of snap rings and I did need snap ring pliers which I'm unlikely to ever need again.

I have those same pegs on my Ultra. Love them once they were on and set up. Not so much fun getting them that way.

With their current placement, I can place my heels on the footboard and toes on the highway pegs, I can place my feet on the pegs as they were meant to be used or I can place the back of my ankles on them to stretch my legs out straight. That's the extent of my "adjustments".

That is one sweet looking Heritage. Looks like we have the same "wheels".

I can't slip my foot down there, or grab it with my hand and make a quick motion to change. It requires tools.

Installation was a biotch!!! For something as simple as this (so I thought), it took a while to push the peg in and hold the "D" shaped ring in place. Didn't "just slide into place" as the instructions imply. Took some muscle and coersion.

Yup...installation was a beeotch. Got em where I like em so I shouldn't need to mess with them too much.
