Looks great! I've often considered changing out the oil tank on my Train, and like you, I have the chrome trans cover that needs to go on as well.
BTW, I have the stud rear lowering kit on mine, I don't have it slammed as low as it will go, but i've ridden two up with 450lbs between the 2 of us and never bottomed out.
How have you got the shock preload set? Is it stiff under normal conditions?
I left the shock preset where it was when I bought it, not sure what setting it is on. It is a little stiffer that it was before the kit, but not too bad. I just lift my butt off the seat when I see a pothole coming.

I'm all about saving $$$.........but I've heard that when you get 'em slammed with the bolts, you can get your fillings jarred out by a cigarette butt.......I don't mind spending the $$$ if the difference in ride quality is worth all the bones for the shocks
