Has anyone used these
I would assume you need to modify the front brake and
wheel spacers

They are about the same cost as a used springer front end on Ebay. But, for taking the headaches away, well worth the money IMO. You can still use your stock caliper by purchasing or making an adapter that allows you to bolt your stock caliper on and fit the springer front end. I have an 03 on the lift right now with that set up. The adapter is about $30 on Ebay .

Didn''t want to deal with the headaches and the grinding and welding

I would love to be able to get a mod like this done in a weekend
