Sort of... The friction disks are each a little bit thinner than OEM. The full stack ends up being the same height as the stock disks plus the spring/disk. Apparently early versions of this set had incorrect instructions that neglected to clarify the removal of the disk, leading to obvious issues... But I had read all of that ahead of time, so I knew what to expect.

I know that some Barnett +1 kits used the judder spring and steal ring. IIRC the first and last plate on those were stock thickness. I have a set in my FXDX but I removed those parts and the narrow plate then replaced with a stock thickness friction from another clutch.. This was an older set of plates. I'm thinking Barnett finally got rid of the spring and narrow plate on the later +1 kits.

Hey... Nice to see you, Robby! I was actually thinking about you recently, wondering if you're still doing that Palm Springs/ Vegas commute... I didn't realize you sold your bike until reading your signature just now!

Nope no more regular commuting for me! Left that company when they got sold, fortunately for me I was the only GM with multiple locations so when they both sold to two different ownership groups I got a nice payout that allowed me to sit on my **** for a little too long! Now working for a different company with no commuting necessary. Always keeping my eye out for another project bike though. I sold the FXDB and did fairly well with it and used the funds to buy a new custom bicycle that I had been dreaming about for 4 years lol. Sometime soon I'll be back on the motorized saddle...
