I want to bring my Street Bob back to stock height. Currently it's lowered 1" in the rear and 2" in the front. Can you tell me what size spacer I need to cut to bring a Progressive drop in lowering kit back to stock height?
Thanks, Hogrida
It's nice to have a little suspension travel to soak up the bumps, and have enough cornering clearance to be able to take corners at better than granny speeds, isn't it.
The front spacers will need to be a little more than 2 inches. But it's no big deal if you get it wrong the first time, if you use regular hardware store PVC plumbing tubing for the spacers. You can basically set the front end at any height you want. If you don't want to go through much PVC tubing (even though it's really cheap), start high, and cut down as needed.
