A buddy of mine pulled the Progressive drop in kit out of his 2008 Softail before he traded it in on a Street Glide. He gave me the kit but he threw away the PVC spacers. Just curious if anyone knows what size PVC pipe I need too make the spacers with. I think they should be 3/4" but I am not positive. I would like too start off lowering it 1 3/4". I just need too know the size and length of the PVC.

 

This link may help ya.

Thanks for the link.

 

CThe spacer is slightly smaller than the washers and springs and if you have a 09 or newer you can't use them

 

Are you saying I need the spacer to be 1" long? I have recently read everywhere that for a 2" drop the spacers need to be 3" long so if I need a 1 3/4" drop then I figured the spacers need to be 3 1/4" long.

 

What year and model do you have? And the longer the spacer the higher it will sit, the more you cut it the lower. I just got mine today

 

2011 Deluxe

 

Kit will not work on a 2011 only up to 2008

Do you notice that they all call for the same Drop-In kit?

 

That is the right part # just did mine, cut the pvc spacer to 3.25" gave me about 1 3/4" drop. Rides great with stock oil and no ricors. Just for fun i may install ricors and change oil to see if rides better
