60 Fl rear fender

[Robert Luland]

Guys I need direction. I want to start painting the fenders and tanks for my 60FLH. The concern is the rear fender. I have three oem fenders to choose from. I know the battery dent is not suppose to be there but Bruce in his book makes reference to the welded washers on the first bolt hole. Did the 60 fender have them or not. As always thanks for your time and input. Bob L

Don't know if this helps, but my '61 has the original rear fender. The hole closest to the shock stud has the large washer on the outside of the fender, no other holes have any washers.
