I have 11" 412's on my 2007 low rider.
It is too low for me, so I am going to go to 11.5's 440's.
How many miles on your shocks?

Progressive just got back to me... the springs aren't interchangeable because the damper lug heights are different

I have the 412's, 11" in chrome.
I think they come in black, 11 1/2.
