5- Cylinder studs
NOTE : S&S can provide extra long cylinder studs, part 31-2320, for these applications.
(See Figure 1)
(See Figure 2)
NOTES
Cylinder studs are easily damaged. Install lengths of ½” ID. rubber or plastic tubing over each stud to prevent nicks and scratches until top end is
assembled. Do not use studs as handle to lift or position crankcases.
Unlike early style stock cylinder studs which rely on interference t between threads of case and stud to hold them in place, S&S studs have standard
thread t and are secured by combination of thread tension and thread locking compound. Late style stock studs, H-D #16937-85C, have same design.
*All reference to Harley-Davidson® part numbers is for identication purposes only. We in no way are implying that any of S&S® Cycle’s products are
original equipment parts or that they are equivalent to the corresponding Harley-Davidson® part number shown.
Seemingly insignicant damage to studs may cause stress risers which can lead to stud failure and possible damage to engine
components.
Insucient thread engagement between stud and base nut or stud and engine crankcase may result in thread failure and major engine
damage.
Thread failure due to insucient thread engagement could cause violent engine disintegration under power, resulting in loss of control of
motorcycle with serious personal injury.
