RE: softail lowering kit
I used ones like that got them off ebay for 17.00 when i got them i took off my shocks took them to local shop "harley" cost me 50.00 to have them press and change out the studs went home reinstalled shocks and adjusted ride ht. wasn't to hard to do droped 2 inches ride way stiffer
but to me well worth the look.

RE: softail lowering kit
I think I'd trust this one to fit better even though it is more expensive.

This is the one I plan to buy to lower my bike in april or so paired with
the springer front end lowering kit.
I've heard JP's stuff is pretty good.

The ones with the bushings are the SAME as theones that"lindnersreds"is showing except they come with bushings and are chrome. Can't see them anyway so the chrome is a big waste.

RE: softail lowering kit
I bought the cheap kit of ebay took of my shocks had harley press them out /in for me all told it was 35 for labor and 15 for the kit rides a little rougher but I lowerd the front 2" as well. It looks so much better though and I've done 400 mile days on it so it's not that bad
