Just as the title says I am curious if i will have any issues with my belt guard and 1" shorter shocks? Oh btw it a 2011 WG which I am sure you all could have figured with the sig name and pic below. Anything else I should be aware of with just a 1" drop? I figure only 1" I should be fine but better safe than sorry. Thanks for the help

 

Lowered a 2010 Street Bob 1 and 1/2 inches and both the upper and lower guards were unaffected.

 

Pefect thanks I would guess I should be fine then, different model but I would think guards would be effected realitivly the same on all dyna's

 

Yup.essentially the same frame

 

+1 on that, I have 11" 412's and no issues... sometimes if your'e too low, and somehow you hit a huge bump and bottomed out on the fxdwg the rear fender may hit the belt guard but thats pretty unlikely, and even if you did it shouldn't matter (other than possible putting a small dent in the bottom corner of your fender)

 

I have marks on my upper belt guard from hitting on big bumps. I am running 1" blocks.

 

when i lowered my wide glide , had to trim part of the fender than was over the belt guard to clear

 

Being the blocks change the shock angle I have heard that can be an issue. Not as worried with shorter shocks but thanks for the heads up!

 

Hmm, with a 1"? What year

Same here - I had the fender over the belt guard cut about 1/2" when I had the back of the fender cut even below the struts, because of contact marks on the guard from running 11" shocks...
