Don't you have 39mm tubes? I have 39mm both legs but lowers fit softail. What is you part numbers? I will put mine in this post for you to compare. I was informed that the forks will fit sportys and dynas after 2000 my bike is a 1998 dyna low. Turd that sold them to me lied. I will be straight up with you. Get the part numbers and we can compare.
