Default Drive Pulley Interchangeability?

Hey everyone,

I just changed out the main gear on my '89 FLHTCU. Both the splines of the 5th gear and the drive pulley were damaged, so I'm hunting for a pulley now.

A lot of these sprockets for the FLHTC look like they are very similar, even interchangeable. Can anyone confirm or deny?

Thanks
-Dave

'85-'06 pulley's will work. The '89 spacer and a new seal has to be used.

I'm kinda in the same boat. Trying to figure out if a pulley from an 06 Heritage will fit the 07 SG rear wheel. I was told the 06 SG wheel would work on the Heritage but not certain about the 07 wheel. The 06 SG has a 70 tooth and the 07 SG changed to a 66 tooth and I'm not sure if the bolt pattern changed any. Anybody have any expertise on this???

The 06/07 rear wheel should be the same,I just put a 70t 1-1/8" pulley off a Dyna on my Airstrike wheel.08 is where the axle and spacers started to change,the pulley should be ok.

That's exactly my thoughts too but I couldn't confirm if the bolt patterns were the same. Finding a front wheel (Airstrike) in an 18" isn't too difficult. Finding the 06-07 rear has been a booger.

The bolt patterns & pulley center hub diameter are the same for '00-'07 Touring. Dynas, Softails, & Sportsters '00- current? Pulley differences are belt width, tooth count & offset.

Thanks Dan. I was thinking the same just needed reassuring.

I know that my 1999 & the 2005 SG wheel I needed to get a spacer with different hub centers. But I have a good friend that has a machine shop that hooked me up with what I needed.
