ok.i saw a few weeks ago someone modified a picture of a streetbob with a springer front end.i loved it,and been thinking of it ever since,now iam going to do it to my bobber.winter project,just want to get all the stuff now.but i was woundering were to buy the best springer front end.thier is so many diffrent manufactures now adays.not sure which is crap and which is good.they range from 500-3000 dollars,but i know one thing,just cause its expensive ,doent mean its good.my friend told me PAUGHCO springer front ends are good.do you have any suggestions?and is it possible to do it to a dyna????thanks a ton [IMG][/IMG]

 

If you know someone with a springer (get someone you don't like) and steal theirs. Just Kidding!!! I believe the stock HD one should bolt right on. I believe the neck on the Dyna and the Softail are the same size. Keep surfing Ebay of call some salvage yards. I'd use a HD one but thats just me.

 

I agree..I'd stick with Harley. I'd love to see one on a bobber. I love the springers...especially with apes.

the one thing about the oem springer front ends,i dont really care for is their width.thier to skinny.and i would like to go with a wider one to fit the bobbers width.so it dont look to skinny in front

 

look up sugar bear in S0-Cal. His front ends are awesome and made to order. Also try http://www.redneckengineering.com/

 

Would be cool to get one with rake degree about like the wide glide or maybe a little more. Could also come up with some pretty cool color combinations, say black powder coat on the spring arms and chrome on the main forks. That and a 21" front would really make a custom BOBBER.

 

I think DNA makes a direct bolt on. www.trydna.com. There are other companies like Jerry's Springer and Redneck that could probably build one to fit if you like their look. I think DNA would be quite a bit cheaper though. There is nothing wrong with not going with an HD springer if you don't like the look. I've done away with ALOT of stock Harley stuff that I didn't care for to get the look I want...just do whatever you like the look of that will work.

 

SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A SOFTAIL SPRINGER IF YOUR NOT HAPPY WITH THE NEW DYNA PLATFORM WHICH IS THE BEST HD HAS EVER PRODUCED SINCE 1903

 

Cant wait to see the finished product, I would go with the black springer it will look sweet.
