Default Springer help!
I am converting my FXST stock suspension for a springer front end. What is the standard "over" size for the suspension I should be shopping for to keep it true to size?

Thanks

I could be wrong here but i think an over mesurment would be longer then the OG. Two over would be two inches longer or three under three inches shorter.
