i used spacers between my frame and relo bracket and between the relo and controls to push out another 1.5" total as well as forward 3"..no more knee in air cleaner

not heel rest but added lots of comfort

I had Heel Raiser pegs on my FXDC...gave me the option of heel-rest or fold it up to no heel-rest. Almost ALWAYS used the heel rest! I liked 'em!
