Saddle Bag relocation kit
I have a 2006 Heritage Softail with leather bags. I want to install rear saddle bag guards (part no. 49261-00A), which require a bracket relocation kit (part no. 90238-00). These brackets move the bags a couple of inches to the rear, at the bottom, to allow the installation of the guards. My question is: since the top of the bags also need to move the same distance to the rear, why is there no bracket available? Each of the bags has two holes at the top, and the bolts cannot be relocated. Any advise?

I installed the bag mount kit just this last weekend, the first mod to my new FLSTC. I installed it though as a necessary part of installing the passenger floorboard kit. I used the Harley parts bought from the dealer, don't have the numbers 'cause I'm not at home but it was a simple removal of the part that extends back from the footpeg for the saddlebag bracket and was replaced by a curved out bar that mounted on the rear of the peg mounts threaded hole.
The only mild annoyance is that now I have to remove a nut and screw for saddlebag removal as opposed to just the nut that held it in place before.

They really need to stop calling it a relocation kit.... It freaks people out...
This kit is used for Bag guards, and HD passenger floorboards. So maybe you already have them.
