Thanks, Mike
They are the exact same distance apart as the Street Bob and Super Glide trees. Only diffence is 1.5 degrees more rake.

I have done this 3 times to fxr and fxd if yours has the lower screw on the tree on the side, drill the light houseing where the treads are and run a short bolt from the inside and bolt down tight to the lower tree.Cost about 1 dollar. and 30 minutes time.

Nope - didn't take it personally - just letting you know I was among the rare few that like it.

The Forks on the '08 Dynas are different right? If so, this setup won't really work I am assuming....

Just beware of the JP Cycle ones. The chrome is pretty flimsy and is likely to flake off.
Ya get what ya pay for, so I wasn't all that pissed when it happened to my set.
