Frequently Asked Questions
Will this fit my 2000+ Dyna or Sportster?
No — this axle is for 1988-1999 Sportster and 1991-1999 Dyna only. Newer models use different axle dimensions.
Is this a complete axle assembly or just the shaft?
This is the axle shaft only — you will need the wheel bearings, seals, and spacers if not already on hand.
What's the difference between this and an aftermarket axle?
This is OEM-spec from Harddrive, distributed by Western Power Sports. It restores stock geometry and bearing fit without modification.
Do I need to replace bearings when I install this?
It's recommended to inspect and replace wheel bearings and seals if they show wear, since you'll have the wheel off.
