I have an 06 Electra Glide and recently switched motors as the crank went in my old 88. I put a 2001 88 in it out of a dyna. It runs strong but won’t charge. The stator keeps getting cooked like it’s dragging on the rotor. Is the shaft a different length? When I torque the compensator down it won’t even turn over. Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks
Are you using the stator from your 06? It's a different part number than what goes into a 2001 dyna. Different part numbers there must be something different about them.
For starters, I'm pretty sure there are very few, if any, parts that are interchangeable between the touring platform and the Dyna platform. The differences are many, and likely the source of your problems. But I could also be wrong.
This spacer is the wrong size. The problem stem from the motor using a different left side main bearing.. IIRC you need the spacer from the early motor. You are right, you destroyed another stator.
01 is single phase, 06 3 phase I am pretty sure. So volt regs have to match. 2001 touring bikes had two size stators. 38 or 35 had spacer, I don't thik 45 amp did.

But my point was depths may be wrong. As shown above, they might different sprocket shaft spacers, the spacer on shaft inside oil seal behind stator., Since 2001 had timken bearing, and 2006 did not.
Looking at parks manual might help and comparing parts.

Depths are wrong because of the bearing but not the stator..
You are probably right. I am just pointing out, lots of different sizes, and lots to think about. I would to lazy to try this.
But does make me think, what will I need to do, if I do a timlen conversion.
You know what? You're right.. The stator is larger and it looks like they re-spaced the rotor to accommodate a wider stator. Pic is out of the drag catalog. Notice that the 99-02 dyna is about 0.2" shorter than the 99-02 FLT spacer. Probably because of a bigger alternator.
