Yeah I have the word out there to all my dyna riding buddies to ask around. I have an appointment at the local Harley mechanic and he's going to get it squared away for me. 300$ job. 100$ for each tube and 100$ in labor. Fingers crossed I can find tubes by the time my appointment comes. I'm sure it will be easy to sell the longer tubes when i make the swap...try to recoup some of my money.

Front fork tubes were 2 inches longer. Got them off and went back to stock and lowered it right down for me. Thanks for all the help, appreciate it.
