Post a photo of what fender you are looking for. 46el

Ricky,
Keep in mind that all 45s from the '29 D series up had drive chains on the right hand side. All big twins have it on the left. Consequently the chain cutout/relief is on the right side, the offset in the braces is on the right side, and rear chainguard mounts are on the right side, etc.Robbie Knight Amca #2736

Ricky, the only reason it's an issue is for people in the future that may need this information. The search feature here is rather feeble so searching by category, and title seems to be the best way to find something. I'm not trying to make you feel bad, because I've done the same thingEric Smith

If I remember correctly a few months ago a friend took a late (maybe 34-36 FRONT skirted) RL or maybe DL repop fender and took the brace off and used the fender shell to make a knuckle fender? Is that possible? I do know he relocated the springer mount holes up on top of the fender which are wider than the knuckle. I had listed the brace on ebay for him and got no response and gave it back to him. I had no idea what the brace was and did a completed auction search and back then found a few fronts with the same brace. I believe that Walksler was one of the sellers. 46

Funny, the basket 29 I have came with some repop fenders that are for something else and the old brackets were removed . The fenders seem to fit ok but the brackets will not work. I’d really like to have the correct fenders if it’s possible to find some. Yes, I think I need Johnny sells book. Thanks, Rick.

He might have made a fender to fit a Knucklehead but the profile is decidedly different. Jerry
