Install axle adjusters from your swing arm on to
trike swing arm. Install trike swing arm use you bolts spacers and
pivot tube. Do not bolt up shock, let
swing arm hang down by spreading shocks a little bit, swing arm
will hang down more. Torque swing arm
pivot bolt 120 to 150 ft. lbs.
######################################################

Have a friend help set a wheel and tire on the brake side of the
rear end. Turn the rear end over on to the wheel that was just
installed. Mark the star plate and a spoke with green tape to help
realign when reinstalling star plate.
######################################################


Remove the five allen head bolts in the star plate to spokes, lift
and remove the star plate with axle housing and axle as a unit. If
your Softail is 1999 and down, take your pulley and differential
spacer to a machine shop. Have them measure the thickness of your
pulley and remove that amount from the differential spacer.
Install Pulley. Install 7/16" pulley bolts with lock washer
provided apply blue loctite and
torque the pulley bolts. Have friend help hold the center section
of the rear end with a screw driver through a hole in the rotor
through one of the holes in the star plate. Torque the pulley
bolts 55 to 65 ft. lbs. Install spacer on the differential spigot.
If your Softail is 2000 and up you can install your pulley and
torque, then install the differential spacer. Your spacer will
slide inside of the pulley.
######################################################

The picture on the left is of a 2000 and up
pulley, note the space around the spigot and the inside hole of
the pulley. The picture on the right is of a 1999 and down pulley.
Note that there is space around the spigot and the inside hole of
the pulley.
######################################################

Once you have finished installing the pulley and differential
spacer, you might want to make this stand to set the rear end on
while finishing the installation. The height may be a little
different if you do not use the wheels and tire that we offer. The
rear end will sit level with this setup.
######################################################

Slide the rear end under the bike. Lower the jack and set belt on
pulley. (This is a little tricky but have patience) This is shown
with a 65 tooth pulley. ######################################################

If you have a 70 tooth pulley, remove the caliper. Slide the rear
end under the bike. The rear end will have to be over to the right
side as shown. Insert differential on to axle (DO NOT push all the
way on to axle).
######################################################

Set the belt on to the pulley.
######################################################


Push the differential the rest of the way on to
the axle. Reinstall caliper and tighten bolts.
######################################################

Slide drive side star plate onto rear end
differential housing, align the star plate with the spoke that was
marked with the green tape. Start all ½” allen bolts on star plate
into spokes, tighten evenly. DO NOT FORCE BOLTS IN.
######################################################

With rear end bolted together snug. Check the differential spacer
to make sure that is spins. The spacer needs to have 0.010” -
0.030” endplay when installed.
######################################################

Remove the ½” allens one at a time apply blue
loctite and reinstall torque 60 ft. lbs. Both Sides. Install
lower swing arm mounting bolts both side leave loose. Install
upper swing arm mounting bolts, make sure to put the washer
between the swing arm and the star plate on both sides leave
loose.
######################################################

Install brake line to rear caliper and bled.
######################################################


Raise or lower the jack to install shock bolts
and torque 115 to 130 ft. lbs. Install wheel and tighten lug
nuts.
######################################################

Remove the wood block from under the rear end
and remove the jack.
######################################################



Torque the lug nuts 78 to 85 ft. lbs. Both
sides. The trike must be sitting
on the ground on its suspension to adjust the belt. We have shown
this with one of the wheels removed for clarity.
Adjust belt tension to factory specs. Tighten jam nut on adjuster
bolts and torque the four rear end mounting bolts to 104 ft. lbs.
Go for a ride. Re-torque lug nuts after 25 miles or 100 mile
maximum.
