Thanks for the great feedback. If I go with the 422’s I’d definitely do the RAP. Been talking with the wife about just doing the Shotgun and I might be able to swing it so I’m gonna be patient and see if I can make that work first.

If you can go straight to the Shotgun, do it.
I have the Shotgun shock set-up now, and have modified the wiring to work with the mounted 2 toggles switches and a 4 button remote fob.

Progressive 442s with RAP and mono-tubes in the front is what I went with. Works lots better than stock on my Deluxe.

I have 422 w/RAP on my softail. I love the adjust-ability. I bought the HD's and that was a bad decision. I only weigh 165# and the HD's are hard as a rock. I just purchased a new set of springs and are having them changed out. If you ride 2 up a lot, best go with the HD springs!

If I'm not mistaken the HDs are for >250 .lbs.
But at 350 you differently want to go with the HDs.
