Lehman Body Squeak

[hdchaplain]

I have a 2007 Harley Ultra with Renegade conversion. I bought it that way with about 12 k miles. It was supposed to have been converted at about 7 k. It has developed a rather noisy body squeak that occurs riding solo or two up. If I push down on the right fender it stops...so what needs tightened? or does some bushing or "padding" need replaced?

BODY NOISES
Straight axle or LLS ??
Isolate the noise ... body, frame or something rubbing.
Remove the side panel rt side and test ride.
Look at the passenger grab handle, is it rubbing the body.
The park brake cable rubbing the body.
It has 6 bolts holding body to frame with rubber shim-spacers between the body and the frame, 4 in the trunk floor and 2 in the top of the trunk that attach to a bracket on the frame. That bracket could be loose.
Is the body rubbing the faux-fender that the seat mounts to.
The wiring harness could be rubbing.

Squeaker

It's a straight axle. I'll check those areas. Thanks for your help.
