Default dyna fork slider question

Hey guys,
&nbsp\\;
Are the lower fork sliders/legs on the&nbsp\\;06-08 street bobs the same.&nbsp\\; i was looking at HD's site and saw a chrome front end package (46876-08) and it is only for 08's.&nbsp\\; then i see a chrome lower sliders (46586-06A) and this is for 06-08 dynas, except wide and FB.&nbsp\\; what gives?&nbsp\\; are the the same.&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
my buddy took a set off his 06 SB and i was gonna buy them and have em powdercoated?&nbsp\\; so i dont have any downtime if i change this out before winter!&nbsp\\; what ya think?

Part of the Honda buy-out no doubt.

Are the WG sliders interchangeable with other Dynas of the same year?

the 49mm ones are not...also.... the wide glide previously had 41mm lowers while the rest of the lineup had 39mm...

I believe the WG left side sliders have different part numbers than the rest of the left sliders for the Dyna line-up. It has to do with the mount spacing of the caliper.

I think for best results your gonna want to take the wheel and fender off...
you can turn the lowers for ease of applying the paint and not miss any areas.
