Detachable Locking Latch
I bought the locking latch (# 46063-98) to use on my tour pac The part number formy detachable rack is not listed on the instruction sheet for the lock How do I determine which side to install the latch and do I need the washer? Also there is a grove in the latch, the directions indicate installing the grove facing in on some applications and facing out on others. I need help.
The part number for the tour pac rack is #53276-04 I installed it on a 2006 ultra classic.
Thanks for any help

RE: Detachable Locking Latch
The latch has a countersunk part for the washer to go in for it to work right. I tried it on both sides. on the left side its a pain in the butt to git the key in and unlock it and take the key back out. I put it on the right hand side and it swings from the outside to the inside, just opposite of the other latch. It still latchs well but gives me access to the keyhole so I can unlock it and git it off. It's so tighht when you swing it around you just about can't even git it off when its not locked.
It worked well for me and a lot of my friends say, now why didn't I do it like that.
Oh yea ! I used blue locktight on the threads also.

RE: Detachable Locking Latch
You can throw away the instructions....they are useless.....didn't have my set up either.
Left side, groove facing in, locking mec. facing forward....and you might have to do it a couple of times to figure
out if a washer will fit(line up)or not. Trial and errror. I ended up taking the pack off the detach rack because i was
moving it back and it made the trial and error a lot easier.....killed two birds with one stone..
Patience........
