Okay so Im thinking of doing a springer front end on my dyna Street bob. Dont quite know where to get the kit or what brands are good. Can anyone lead me in the right direction. Im in miami, Fl so if anyone knows a reputable shop that does work like this please recommend.

Thanks

 

The only company that I am aware of that makes a direct bolt on Springer for the Dyna neck is Paughco. The problem is that Paughco has figured out that Dyna's have different necks than Softails and Shovelheads, and standard forks for those bikes won't fit Dyna's. So they rape your a$$ to the tune of about two thousand dollars for just the forks. I am currently running the Paughco Springer as shown in the pictures. If you have the time and inclination, you can "make" a DNA or any of the variants fit. It required a pissload of grinding, and in the case of my '96 it also required me to modify my front tank mount as well. That being said, cheap chinese front ends are just that..... cheap pieces of crap. When I upgraded from a DNA to a Paughco, the difference was well worth the added expense. I suggest you buy the Paughco, but if your on a budget the DNA will get a Springer on the bike. Just be forewarned, if your not doing the install yourself be prepared to pay a shop quite a bit of cash to modify the chinese junk pile front end. Money that you could spend on a better front end thats a simple bolt on.

 

look into ACME.
not sure if they make em for dyna's, but i know they make nice springers.

or you could go with the real OG **** an get a sugarbear.

 

As bikerlaw said there are a few other brand you can get they will run you ablut 600-800 maybe a Grand for one of those and as he also siad they arent the best quality etc etc... A shop will do the swap for you probably around a few hundos I think I got qouted for my FXDF with a springer front end its was $1200-1500 they told me... But as ^^^ said its worth getting a real nice one like Paugcho but it all depends how much $$$ you want to spend...

Bikerlaw your frontend looks killer bro.............

 

or just get a kiwi leaf

 

I wanna do it right I'll get the good one of the rip. Thanks for the info guys

 

Thanks Los11, its been a great front end so far.

 

this springer looks awesome! can you please help identify which springer it is? I understand it is from Paughco but can you tell me the length or maybe even model number? I would like to put this springer on my 2000 dyna.. i know they come in stock or +3 or -3 in length can you help me out with which one is on this bike? also the bike looks a little raked.. or is this just the was this springer makes the bike sit? please let me know any info if you have any, thanks!

 

As far as I know Paughco only makes one model Springer for the Dyna line. The make it in 3 inch options. The one pictured on my Low Rider was the 3 over Springer. I ran a stock length 22 inch DNA for a while as well. But I thought the 3 over Paughco looked more proper on the bike. Mine was what they call stock rake. But I think Paughco will add 3 degrees of rake as an option.

 

wow thank you very much for the fast reply! so what i am getting at is that you had a stock rake on the bike and also had a stock rake +3 springer from paughco? i love the look and the way it sits
