Yeah I did, but since the caliber is all good I am happy, I will put a brand new from harley rotor on to replace this one. So it's like fitting NOS wheels 😂 Thank you so much for your help!!

Oh, one more thing...If you get the bearings from Harley, make sure you get the "B" revision for the STD bearing ...9276B ...NOT "A"

Will do 👍🏻
I was under the the impression the abs bearing had to come from harley but I could get the others from a bearing shop!
also can you tell me if switchblades are the same as the current fxdb special wheels?

Now, there are a
few other options for the ABS bearing, but the HD F.A.G. unit is probably your best bet.
Yes, the other bearing is an industry std #6205-2rs...can get those from anyone

Are you talking about the "Bike Builder" at the HD site? If so, none of the wheels below are Switchblades

Hey more questions for you... on stopping by the seal ship they told me to just get a wheel fitment kit?
also what's the best way to paint the wheels? Powder or two pack?

Sure, you can buy a fitment kit...easier for most people. What you lose is: a little money (they will cost more than getting only the parts you need, but not much) and the reason to buy the STD 6205-2rs bearing elsewhere if you wanted (unless you want duplicate parts)
What's a two pack?...I know what a 6-pack is

No, I really didn't know what you were calling a "two pack". I would have guess some sort of two part paint(epoxy?)
Painting might be fine optionally to PCoating
