I am not positive on this but aren't they the same as wideglide trees?

Yes... the 2010 WG trees are the same WIDTH as the Fat Bob, but the rake maybe differant.

I think the Street Bob 49mm tubes would go into either set of trees.

I believe the rake on the fat bob trees is 28 degrees.

the rake on the fat bob is in the neck, you are going to need spacers for the wheel and caliper though, not bad though since the moco offers new black trees for around $250 or so and a stock sg upper tree is over $300 i believe

Just finished putting a set of polished '08 FXDF trees on my '08 FXDC with a 21" front wheel from an '06 FXST. Wasn't too big a deal, got the trees and wheel on ebay, had to have the spacers machined, everything else was just nuts a bolts.

I've got fatbob trees, if you want to keep the streetbob you need,
1x 20mm rotor spacer, 2x 20mm wide wheel spacers & 2x 20mm fender spacers.
use either a fatbob or wideglide axle and its good to go.

Yes I picked fatbob black trees because of 0 deg rake plus my last bike of 17 years was a 1985 FXWG and with my apes it will look better. thank you for the info on the spacers MarksBoB
