Using an aftermarket jiffy stand and spring with the hinge pin, brass bushings and cotter pin from HD, total cost (over $90). ((BlackBikeDave of the XLFORUM httphttps://www.xlforum.net/forumsforum/showthread.phpsportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-suspension-frame-forks-handlebars-fuel-tank-oil-tank-fenders/152531-jiffy-stand?t=1643796)) \\ |
| You can see the top bushing and the cotter pin. Notice how the bushing has a small bit of room to rock back and forth. \\ |
| As per the manual you will have to make sure that is greased well and inspect every servicing. \\ |

|
| There is a perfect hole in the bracket on the frame to hold the bottom bushing in place (meaning it can't move like the top one can. \\ |
| Also you can see where the spring attaches. Also check this for problems at every servicing. \\ |
