Differences between 07' FXDB and 09' FXDC triple trees?
I wanted to buy a set of 09' FXDC trees to send out and Powder Coat and then swap out my 07's so I don't have much down time. They both have the risers with bushings, but the Part Numbers are different for both the upper and lowers. The 07' p/n superceeds, but it still does not match the 09'. I can't see a difference between them, anyone know what the differences are between the 07' FXDB and 09' FXDC trees? The rake is the same and the bearings are the same P/Ns?????

The part numbers are different because of the changes.
They most likely didnt discontinue the old the number because they have accesories listed to fit the 07 trees that wont fit the newer trees and the breakage issue was not a big problem.

Changes were made in 08 and like I said the breakage wasn't I huge problem so I doubt there was a service bulletin. I think it only happened when working on the trees not while riding.
Kind of like how they changed how the exhaust mounts to the case because of some breaking as well. Just a slight redesign on that in 08 as well.
One of the first things I bought for my bike was a signal relocate back in 08. Indy gave me a part he had on hand that was listed 06+ Dynas. It didn't work and when I looked up the number the part number had been changed to just 06/07 Dyna. I did some searching on here and that's when I found they redesigned the triple tree around the pinch bolts in 08.
