  Anyone have a softail rear caliper they wanna get rid of?

  Accidentally bought a Dyna style rear caliper thinking I could make it work. The softail style is the better option.

  
  

  Cheers!

  Alright, I THINK I'm after a 00-05 Softail or Vrod Caliper. No dyna's.
  

  So im not sure if  Chriso's would work or not?
  
  

  The issue the angle of that mount. I've gotta weld a plate on the swingarm to run it. Here's one thats already been done, and running the setup I want to run.

  Nah I've figured it out. They're very similar, but Softails have a slot like >< where as Dyna's have a straight slot. 
  

  One in pic you can tell has the bigger style slot off a Softy. I've updated a previous post with the difference.

  
  

  Good lesson boys.
