Title: Help ID This Frontend
Post by: JamLazyAss on June 21, 2022, 06:45:14 PM
How can I verify that this is a EVO or SHOVEL Wide Glide front end?
The stem measures about 8 inches.
There's no casting numbers on the triple tree.

It looks like older FLH triple trees 84 down and 89 up tubes and lowers

I agree on the lowers with the dual disc.  Those calipers span quite a few years into the TC years. IIRC the dual disc FLH began in 1985.

So you guys are pretty sure it EVO then?
I need a wheel for it, just not positive what to look for.

It looks like 84-99 FLHT legs and possibly pre-EVO FLH lower tree. It has mounting bosses on lower tree for the fork tree panels?
Has it got any rake, or is it neutral? What is centre centre measurements for the lower tree?
