I just got my shotgun shocks from JD. Was wondering if anyone has installed a set and is there any thing I should know. I have the instructions and they seem pretty striaght forward. Just want to hear from folks that have the knowledge as there is always something to consider.
The shocks are going on an 07 night train.

Hello and welcome to the forum. You will probably have better luck asking this question in the softail forum as many of the member there have installed them. I plan to get some for my softail as well and they have been a great help in finding out what I need for my build. Good luck and I hope this helps.
Most threads dealing with the Shotgun Shock system get moved to the Air Suspension section. A section most don't visit. I think it was created to give the other systems a chance by hiding the fact that so many have the Shotgun on their Softails vs. any other air system.
