Default Spring Seat
I have been on the fence for awhile now and decided to install a spring seat on my 06 Street Bob; tryin to get that old pre 60's look.

Most kits that I see online do not have the frame cover and / or seat. Now not having a welder, this posses a bit of a problem. Does anyone know of a kit that contains, the frame cover, t-bar, and springs and bolts on? and if so, what type of seat do I use, K, CP, or P? Just a little lost and alot confused. [sm=dontgetit.gif]

Plus I would like to get a passenger pillion to match. All help is appreciated...

Sway thanks alot...

Do you know the dimensions of the police seats? The ones on the website are really big. I was hoping to get something a little smaller

You don't have to use one of the police seats for that. You can use most any of the spring seats.

Sway ...

You had a Spring seat right? Was that the kit you used? I'd like to see that kit installed on a '06 later Dyna.
