Anyone know if fatbob rear shocks will fit 03 wide glide? I think they are 12" which is what I'm looking for, just don't know about bolt sizes etc. If anyone has a set for sale please pm me Someday I'll get the progressive full cover shocks, but not in the budget this year. Thanks.

 

Check the HD accesories catalogue. The Fat Bob shocks are listed there and they will show the years that the shocks fit. The HD price is ridiculous at $399.00.

Got mine on Ebay for $126.00 delivered in perfect condition. These shocks lower a WG slightly and look outstanding.

 

I'll give you $127 How bout a pic of your WG. Love to see how good it does look.

Progressive's suck? There, I said it for you Howard. I know you didn't ask me to, but I know more than 1 person who have had Progressive's, and ended up with Works- or better.

 

Whew........glad it's out in the open now. My biggest regret on my Fatbob is selling the stock shocks on Ebay BEFORE buying Progressive 412's. Bike rides like a rigid even on the lightest setting. I've never driven a concrete truck but.............guessing it drives much like my Fatbob rides!!! Bring on the overtime and new shocks.

 

I think it only fair to point out that they are an affordable product when replacing worn out shocks, or if you want to lower your ride. Great for those who don't ride aggressively. I've never owned a set, but I would replace stock with Works, or ???

 

Thanks guys...Have heard of a few troubles in the past. Really love the chrome cover look, so maybe the fat bob stockers will work well for me if I can find a set.

 

I am pretty sure they will bolt on to your bike. I like them, they give a nice compliant ride. Can they be better? Of course they can. I sold works shocks when we had the Arctic Cat dealership and when I decide to drop the cash that's where I'll do it. They taylor them to you and the results exceed your expectations.

 

Hmm... I had Progressive 812s(?) on my Nightster and thought they were great. They're covered like the Fat Bobs, but I don't think they look as nice.
