Forty Eight axle size...
My fabrication guy is making me a lisc. plate bracket and needs to know if the rear axle is a 1" with a 3/4" thread size or what? Anyone have a clue? And if I'm not mistaken, the axle loads from the right side through to the left correct? I'm not in front of the bike right now. Thnaks!

Your Harley however, uses a cotter pin through the castle nut and axle to prevent the possibility of nut coming loose.

...and to add to that...I am a suspension tech. When I'm doing a full restoration I will use a small cordless impact to remove all of the castle nuts with cotter pins. I don't even bother removing the pins if I'm replacing that specific piece. I just zip them right off. Even with a low battery. And from my personal experience, I can tell you that the pin on our axle is no match for the rotational force of a seized axle while simply cruising down the road. That pin is a last chance safety to retain the nut in a NORMAL situation when it is simply loose.
