LSD Exhaust - Please Help

So far I've been through 2 sets of Hooker pipes for my '04 chopper and neither would fit. I'm considering V&H Big Radius but V&H says they don't have anything for my application. Anyone know the part number for the Big Radius that will work on a LSD chopper and what mods if any are needed to make them fit correctly? How about another brand similar to Big Radius style that would fit? Any help is much appreciated.

just wondering, why the pipes want work on your 04. just about every evo pipe will bolt up. i've got a set of 04 pipes from a 250 on my 06 with a 300. or is it just the bottom mounting brace?

Do you mean the the bracket did not fit? Can't imagine the pipes not fitting! With any pipe you go with YOU will most likely have to make or modify a bracket for it unless you get the mean mother pipes from BDM.

Good luck,

First thanks for the repsonses. I ordered Hooker Troublemakers (look similar to Big Radius) for a softail and the top pipe didn't bend out enough (hit the frame). After talking to Hooker they said I need their "widetail" version which fits RSD Big Dogs and wide tire LSD. They do in fact bolt up (a 1/2" spacer between the bracket and frame made it line up better) so technically Hooker didn't lie but considering the pipes were intended for RSD there is a large gap between the pipes and frame, which looks odd from the rear. Additionally the rear of the pipes are high exposing most of the mounting bracket which is unsightly and also interferes with the rear pegs.

EZ I have Big Radius on my 04 Chopper. The only thing we needed to do at install time was modify the mounting bracket a bit. The pipes came direct from V&H (I'm a dealer) but were installed at my local BDM dealer while some warranty work was being done.
