It'd be hard to use those struts cause they'd mount to the swingarm and have to travel up and down with the suspension and would want to move the fender too right? YOu'd have to make the fender float with the rear tire moving up and down wouldnt you?
thats the reason why are struts are mounted out from the frame and away from the swingarm.
Hey, you asked where to get Bruiser's fender. (Whoops! It wasn't you who asked, but that's what this thread is about.)
It's mounted to the swingarm. Chopper builders do this all the time, you just have to make sure you have enough room for tire expansion. Usually they use chunks of fuel hose wrapped around the tire lengthwise. So does certain years/models of Kawasaki Drifter (there's one sitting out in the parking lot right now like that). Here's the fender the way Case originally had it:
So, in review, careful what you ask for.
