Default RE: Dyna front end question

Ed,
just did mine today. I got them back from powdercoater and put them together today. To be honest, if you have a manual, just follow the directions and you will have no problems. The hardest part is getting the top cap on as others have said here. I had a buddy puch it down and then I twisted the tube till it was a few threads in and then just tighten it up. I laughted after I did it cause I was making a bigger thing of doing it then it turned out to be. You will be fine.

Nice, maybe if I bookmark this page I'll be able to find it when I actually tear it down.Any suggestions on where to buy springs and what oil to use?

E-mail me when you are ready to do this and I will send youthe instructions from the service manual. i just came across a set of LR trees and am going to pull down my front end when I do the install. The trees will add a 1.5 degree increase in the rake. I'm going to polish my sliders and change the oil when dig into it. I have seen a lot of recommendations for the Screamin Eagle oil.
