Default Front end exchange

Will a 2006 Dyna Low Rider front end fit on my 2000 Superglide Sport? If so, is there anything special that i have to do?

Thanks

The neck on a 2006 Low Rider is a half an inch longer than that of a 2000 Super Glide, will this cause a problem? I have to switch them out because my fork tubes look like horseshoes....ooops.

Here are a couple of threads by GeorgeJ on his experience with a very similar front end swap ... he would probably be able to answer any detailed, specific questions ....

It would appear your proposal is quite possible ... based on the fact that George's project turned out well ....

Good luck and post photos if you end up going forward with the project ....

I swapped my '03 superglide narrow frontend for an '06 front end and I love the look of the beefier and wider forks. I got the front end and fender from ebay and bought a new wheel vs a new hub and restringing the spokes. The '06 front end is a little bit longer due to the slightly longer rake..about an inch.
