URGENT - Upper Triple Tree Needed
 
I'm in desperate need of an upper triple tree bracket for an 04up Sporty, p/n 45966-04. Stock aluminum or chrome doesn't matter. If anyone out there has one, please shoot me a PM or e-mail.

Thanks

Would this work? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2002-...item4ced391f77

You might search eBay.

Thanks, but no. 2003 and earlier are not compatible with 2004 and up.

I have an upper tree from a Dyna. The ony reason the 03 Sportster tree isn't compatible is because of the way the neck bearings seat in the neck. The Dyna tree is exactly the same as 04 & up Sportsters in regard to the register needed to accomodate the flush neck bearing but requires riser bushings. You could get aluminum inserts instead...or use bushings.

Either way, it's yours if you want it.

I had my fork tubes off rebuilding them yesterday. I got everything back together and snugged in place, got out the torque wrench, set it to 34#'s ( specs are 30 - 35 ft #), tightened the first 2 pinch bolts fine but when I got to the third, the tree cracked where it wraps around the tube next to the pinch bolt.

When you do it the right way, using a torque wrench, this chit leaves you scratching your a$$.

As someone said in another forum section, it was probably from Twisty Fatigue. :icon_laugh:
