Where do you plan on purchasing the Springer front end? If you want a new Springer front suspension their are only a few Vendors to choose from. If you plan on purchasing new, contacting the Vendor for information is your best bet.

edit to add:
An FXDWG WideGlide frame would be better suited for a Springer front end as it already has more rake than the SuperGlide frame. Pictures of each would be helpful.

Yeah, I've seen a bunch of softails with a 23 that look good and I figure a dyna is about the same size.

Tcbros has the Springers made for the dyna. So that's what I've been planning on using.

The more research I do, it seems like with the look I'm going for I may want to go with a 3 under springer to sit it low.

Now if running a springer front and no front fender, do you need very much space between the top of the tire and the bottom of the Springer?
