Default I need some measurements Please

On the softail models that have the 3 holes where the fender struts mount.
I need to know the distance between those holes.
I know the back two are the fender strut and the front is the seat correct?
I think I just need the back two but if I could get all three measurements that would be highly appreciated.
Thank you

They are about 2 1/2 " or so. Yes that front one is for the seat. I'm guessing you want to use a strut less rear on your new frame. I have not seen one made for our 2006 and newer frames but if you find one with 3 hole it will work as you would use the front and rear bolt holes and not the middle. There have been a few bikes on here that have done that a crossbones and a nightrain. I went crazy trying to find d a heartland alternative that will work. I ended up using once from custom chrome. I put the link in the front fender thread you have.

This would have been the deal but won't work. Look at the measurements sheet too. Others will bash demo s cycle but I have had no issues with them.
