How To Install an Old School Springer Front End on a Knucklehead Frame!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- In this video, we are switching back from the FLT teardown to the new Knucklehead Hallmark frame and dry fit the new old school style Springer front end. I got new neck cups, bearings, dust shields, water shields and went to install them first manually.
Check out my buddy Ron’s Non-Profit “Recovery Through Restoration” recoverythroug...
Met him at the Ozark Mountain Rumble Rally and I donated the crushed up gas tank from the red FLT plus some other parts. They make cool restoration items out of old parts and work with Veterans. Please support his flea market setup in August at Sturgis Motorcycle Rally at South Dakota.

Awesome start I will be watching
Awesome my Friend!!!
It's been a long time since I have seen a speed wrench looks like you are getting things together looking forward to the next video my friend
A speed wrench is great for initial placement but I always go to a ratchet and socket when trying for a tighter fit.
Aaron, I would've sand blasted the frame first, then, PAINT the frame with BLACK APPLIANCE EPOXY SPRAY CAN. Yeah, you got to let it dry for 24 hrs., but it's almost as indestructible as powder coat and not as thick so you can see the hall marks. Doc P.S.,Use a 12" round BRASS punch to install the neck cups (in the center of the cups). STEEL to remove, thru the neck stem hole, catching the inserted part on it's edge.
2ba4 work good too.
don t use power tools aways go the speed wrench my self HAPPY TRAILS
I chuckled when you pulled out the speed wrench. I was looking in my tool chest Friday and saw my speed wrench. I’ll never get rid of that.
Great video!! Are you going to Sturgis this year?
Thanks for watching!! Sadly not gonna make sturgis this year
What year frame did you order? The neck forging looks like the '36-E'41, 25 degree neck angle. E'41s had the top frame tube bent at the Factory to give a 29 degree angle to prevent the 'death wobble' when running 16" wheels.. Then, about Dec., '40, (Mid'41year model) the Factory got the 29 degree neck forging so they didn't have to bend the top tube. The new forging has the speedo hole (under the dash mount) squared off, not angled like yours. You may have to run an 18" or 21" front wheel to prevent the 'death wobble" at speed. Doc
It’s the 25°, I’ll probably put one of the ride suspension dampner’s on the sPringer
Did you ever hear of shovelevo the block 1973 an top end is1996 with evo cam
Never heard of that, but there’s all kinds of stuff built over the years, I have a STD case shovel head with a 96 inch stroker Evo top end on it, going to build some kinda barhopping sketchy machine out of it
Will be a sweet little ride. What do you think a 75 flh 1200 is worth that is all original unrestored condition?
