Default Are the Crossbones FORK ROCKERS interchangable with other springer models
Hi, I would like to know if the FORK ROCKER of a Crossbones are the same as another Springer model but the only difference is that they are painted black? I'm looking to buy some but the HD Dealer told me that they where obsolete!

all springer products are obsolete. But most of the parts are generally interchangeable.

I already got those parts, they are 46216-05 and 46659-08, but I can't find them no where.

Are those the same part number as the other Springer rockers?
If so, the FX rockers will work for you.
I believe that Harley Sold the rights to their springers to someone but can't remember who.
I'm sure someone will pop in with the answer as to who bought them.

I just did a quick check and based on the part numbers, it appears that the FX rockers will not work on you crossbones.

Check Mid-USA. They make a springer fork that looks identical to a Harley springer fork. Maybe some of their parts will work. I think TC or Lowbrow sells them.

There are 2 different types of springer front ends for softails, FX springers have the narrow 21" front tire, FL springers have the front fat tire like on the Xbones and Heritage. The are different widths on the lower forks. I believe they also have a different stem angle. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I would think the rockers would be the same but apparently not.
Maybe due to the angle?
