I'm guessing that a Dyna Low Rider wouldn't be that different, but maybe I'm wrong. I hope you haven't started just removing parts. If you have, you're going down the wrong path. Take a ride over to your Harley dealer and ask them how to do it or have them put the forward controls on.

But I never worked on an 08 either just 67-91. To install forward controls you shouldn’t have to ***** open the outter primary at all. But I never worked on an 08 either just 67-91.

Why do you need to do all this for FORWARD controls? Also, if you need to remove the inner primary cover (you didn't mention that), the starter also needs to be unbolted. The engine sprocket nut is torqued to about 150-170 ft/lbs, with red lok-tite. Ya got an impact wrench and compressor? The clutch hub nut is left hand thread, but you need a thin wall socket to fit down inside. etc, etc, Think about it. A shop manual will guide you step by step, and it's a LOT cheaper than diving in blindly, and paying to fix something you screwed-up because you didn't know the details!

I think most of the parts will just come off and replace with common hand tools, but get the manual, you are sure to need it. You can’t possibly do this without a shop manual.
