You are opening a can of worms, would be easier and cheaper to buy the correct wheel for your bike. Hate to say that, unless you want to make all those changes, or as jmp suggested, relace the wheel with your hub. I just don't trust Harley spoke hubs.

Thanks. I planned to go to a WG front end anyway...
I have the sliders already, so it seems I need the trees and spacers. I guess it will be a more expensive project in the end.

Yeah, I boned that one up. I "thought" I read different but oh well. It just pushes me to go the full change over.
Speaking of.....I know that people had huge issues with Crass county trees (and it seems they don't even sell them anymore) where to buy new tress?

Black Fat Bob trees should run you about $200.00 through Latus.
They are WG width with 0 degrees rake.

Thanks! I forgot the Fatbob's were the correct width.
I just ran across your thread doing a google search about cass county..Horrible service!
One more question (I feel like a child, sorry for the bother) but if I went with the FB trees, would using some raked bearing cups be acceptable to gain 3 degrees of rake? This seems the cheapest route.
