Default 3 degree Triple

I have put on 11.5 inch shocks on the rear of my 94 fxdwg and was wondering what effect a new 3 degree triple tree would have on the handling etc.

Has anyone else done this and if so what is a good/bad make to use...seems to be plenty on ebay.

Most of the time raked trees should only be used on a frame that has been raked. Otherwise the trail might get you in trouble. You can do a search on trail and connect to a site that'll let you do the math to see if it's a safe number.
