Default Front axle for springer
Hey,

So I will be taking off the front fender off my 2005 classic springer. Now because the fender mounts on the axle, I'm left with a really big gap to fill with spacers. Any idea if a Crossbones axle will fit? Will any of the ebay 3/4 axle for springers fit?

Also, just picked up the Burnout Cycles lowering kit and the instructions are horrible. Anyone have a better write up or experience they can share when installing the bolts?

Thanks!

I'm not sure about the axle, but are you looking to sell that fender? I'd love to have one for my bones. PM if interested.

The Xbone axle will fit. Springer front has had no major changes since 97.
