Unfortunately, Lang’s no longer has them available. When I spoke with Steve Lang back in August he said the person making them no longer wanted to make them so they were dropped from the current catalog.

Get Langs #3858B and extend them about 2 inches. I've used these for 2 people.

Gator was making them. He used an original of mine for the pattern.

U can make a set from the ‘touring’ irons! Just not as ‘thick’ from the flange out.

Thank you all for the suggestions, I actually have a pair of touring irons and if push comes to shove I’ll modify them to use.
I also want to thank member Bill Alexander for supplying the correct measurements to reproduce the originals.
I would like to find a pair of originals if possible-but based on the replies it seems that others have been down this road without much success!

What is the length of the iron. I have a pair of these, but don't know if the ones I have are the correct length. John

Here are the measurements for the correct 25 Pickup rear fender irons. Total overall length is 9 1/4”. Again, special thanks to member Bill Alexander who supplied these measurements and gave his approval to my drawing.

I've been keeping track of 1925 Pickups for years, and I'm up to about 135 now. Not bad for a pickup that I used to think was rare! I had reproduction irons on mine for awhile, until I found an original set.

Whoever was making them for Lang's must not be making them anymore.

Sorry it took so long to reply, but I had a hard time locating them after Hershey. The irons I have are 7 1/2 inches long including the threaded portion.

Sounds like you have the touring fender irons, I have a pair of those to modify if necessary they look the same as 3858B in Lang’s catalog.

I was at Kim Dobbins yesterday, and he has an original, but it has been cut in half, and only the tapered part is left.
