I recently purchased a set of air shocks for my Dyna. Does anyone know where i can get an air line kit for it or do i just need to make my own? Any help would be great thanks.

 

There's a couple different ways you can go.You can either get an air line kit from Harley for an Electraglide or Road King.Or you can go to an auto parts store and get a couple of Schrader valves and air your shocks individually or you can use the schrader valves and some hose to make your own kit.Airing the shocks individually is a hassle but it almost insures you won't have any leaks.The more fittings you have in between the air and the shocks the more opportunities you have for leaks.

 

ok i talked to the parts guy and he told me they dont offer an airline kit is that true

 

Get a new parts guy, mine walked in back and came right out with the kit and the quick air fittings for each shock.

 

Thanks p51 you wouldnt happen to remember the part # would you? Yeah i called the harley dealer today and he acted like i was stupid. said there was no such thing. i would like to find the kit then call him back.

 

Have your dealer try these part numbers:54320-97: Fitting, 5/32in. push-in (2) and 54536-02A: Valve assy.

 

Thanks alot stew, isnt the tubing just 1/8 inch nylon tubing?

 

I would recommend not using the air line kit. It takes less than a minute to screw the air pump on, check the pressure, and pump if needed.

I've read on this forum, and personally know one person who's gauge showed as though the shocks were holding air, but one shock was actually not holding any air at all. Since the gauge is reading both shocks at once, there's no way to tell if one shock is having issues.

 

I once had a complete set of Electraglide shocks with the air lines and all.It worked fine when I had it on my bike but I took it apart one time and could not get it air tight again.This is why I use individual schrader valves now.

 

never thought of it that way thanks alot
