Why are you looking in the M8 section? Fork tubes are different.

I might have a set from a '15 RG that I pulled off a few years ago. Gotta check out in my shop. I'll get back to you if I find them.

Not sure what you are trying to say except that the fork tubes are different? (what I stated) Seems Like he should be asking in the Rushmore section not the M8.

The guys is asking for a 15 limited (rushmore) tubes and the M8s are different.

Max..... I for some reason immediately thought Fork Lowers Sliders and not the actual damper tubes... I stand corrected.
