I'm currently working on a '48 FL. My frame was a chopper frame and the rear footboards lugs were axed in it's jaded past so I'm now in the process of welding on a set of real nice reproduction lugs from Competition Dist. My question would pertain to all big twin frames from '37-'57 I presume.
There are 3 types of studs used. The front left and right are the same length (3.25" oal) and part # 50658-36. No problem. The rears are different from each other. The right side rear is the short "L" with the hole for the brake return spring which is only used on BT's. Can't be mistaken for anything else, no problem. The left side rear stud is the tall "L" which I assume is made to clear the primary cover. My question is; are the footboards suppose to look all crooked and out of whack to each other ?
