Default How to operate this stuff

First time trying this so I have no idea how I got here or what to do next, or how to check for any returns on this message but here goes: First what is welcome area only?

Restoring 1967 SAPD servi car and can't figure out where the REAR BRAKE TEE bolts to the machine. Have new brake system from 45 Restoration.

I hold old hoses and tee pin place at the rear of the new rear brake master cylinder but NOTHING seems to line up anywhere correctly.

Parts and service manuals are no help in where to mound the tee.

Does anyone else work with 45 Restoration? I am having problems.

I hope I get an answer but don't know how to get to ant answers.

Welcome from North Beach, FL., USA!

Just in case you have not done this and only as a suggestion....

Add a Signature Line in your USER set up for your bike year, model, and all the letters that Harley recognizes it with so others see at the bottom of all your post. This enables others to know your exact model if you ever ask a question.

And an Avatar of your favorite shot in the USER set up for the small picture others will see in the top left corner of your post.


​​Your all set.... Enjoy the ride! ______________

Welcome to the H-D Forums from Idaho , Great to have you here ! ENJOY !

A welcome only area is just what it sounds like ! It is an area to ONLY welcome our new members. Not an area to ask their questions for repair or other questions about their ride or activity !
There are different sub forums like this one within the main HD Forums where we tried to make room for almost any type Harley Davidson. You will find the Tech areas helpful, along with the many other discussion forums that might fit your particular Harley.
Please use these forums.

Welcome johndeer.
If you look at the top left part of your screen you will see the HD forums logo and just below that you will see the word 'Forums'.
Put your cursor over the word forums and a drop down menu will appear.

Put your cursor over the second item in the drop down menu which is 'Harley Davidson Motorcycles', and another menu will pop up.
Go down that list until you come to 'Classic'.
Put your cursor over 'classic' and click on it.

That will take you another page with several choices.
Go down and click on 'Flathead' and you should end up in the Flathead section where you can probably get more information than you will ever need regarding your Sevicar.
Good luck.
