No, I left it alone, I only lowered the rear and I like the way it sits.

How much in the rear? I got all these mods to put on during the winter. 18 x 5.50 spoked rear wheel, Tri bar tailight, billet sliders, lowering kit front and back, front spoiler, chrome rotors to match spokes and a HD chromepulley that i got off ebay for 70 bucks, Alloy art blinkers. Thats why i havent posted pics yet b/c im waitin to get it all done. The lowering part is where im stuck on. Im not sure how far i wanna go. Im thinkin 1.5 front and 2 in rear.

Yeah i got mine. They are nice. These HD dealers im guessing are overstocked with these things b/c thats where i got mine from. Got it quick to. Can't beat the price for something that goes for more the 360 bucks.

Yeah, same deal w/the fork sliders, my dealer $650 and I got them for $250. I would've really worried if it wasn't coming from a dealer.

I had given up on e-bay for a long time, till these deals started popping up. Now I'll get what I can while I can, but I don't care for e-bay anymore. It's not what it used to be.

I do the same thing. Look for deals. There are some shady characters out there on ebay.
