Question Lowering the front end...

Hey forum. Want to lower my front end on my 06 Fatboy to go with the Shotguns. I have the Progressive Drop In Kit new still in the box but now I am thinking about the Progressive Monotubes. Is there a big difference? I know for one and it is the big price difference between the both. What about the installation on each one...Thanks ...

I can't speak of the install because I had my INDY do it but he said it was a piece of cake. I have the Shotgun and the monotubes dropped an inch and it's the best riding bike I have ever had or been on. It is more firm but has just about zero nose diving when hitting the front brake. I didn't see any sense in pulling the front springs out and putting springs right back in it.
