I stopped at my local dealership yesterday and they actually had the wiring ext in stock and sold it to me cheap. First time for everything I guess! Thanks a lot M I K E for the offer tho!
Should I have a gap like this in the risers? I know its gonna have a small gap but didnt know what normal size was.

Thanks again Ink. I ordered my wheels this week and I'm gonna order the HHI wide glide trees this weekend. I know you said before that I will need bearings and fork stop. Anything else? should I go with the kit that HHI has for the axle or just buy the axle from somewhere else?

They will look very nice!
Did you shop around for best price, where did you purchase them from? I can't decide to go with ride wright fat 50's with smooth rim or the DNA mammoth 52's for my Cross Bones.

We'll see if this works... quote from another thread by trustnobody
I ended up just getting the axle from hhi and only the axle, washer and nut didn't need the spacers since ride wright made the hubs to fit with stock or you can use the spacers from a wide glide.
hay tree,
yah thats the trees i have. i bought the axle kit too but was a waste of money for me cause since i went with custom wheels i didnt need the rotor spacer or fender spacers i only used the axle but they didnt send me the sleeve that goes in the fork tube. your stock axle has a bolt that holds it together, there gonna a send u a stock 25mm wide glide axle with male threads they didnt send me the nut and washer either but jeff took care of it for me. if your gonna use the stock wheel i can send u the whole kit for $20 u will need a axle (41547-07A) $64.99 axle nut (7813A) $1.49 washer (6655) $.99 and your gonna need that axle sleeve for the fork leg which u can get from hhi or have one machined the dimension for that is .984 od .750 id and 1.375 in length. also the bottom tree is drilled and tapped for a internal stop i used the pro-one internal stop theres 2 slots on the stop just make sure u bolt it on the trees were the shorter slot is towards the rear of the bottom tree so the trees wont hit your gas tank when u turn your bars. its very simple to install if u call and cancel your axle kit youll save some money the kit i have is brand new and u can get the axle and etc from ronnies mailorder thats where i got the price s from. let me know if i can help

I did shop around but directly through ride wright was just as cheap and of course they were way more knowledgable. I looked at the Dna wheels as well. They look great but I was afraid a cheaper wheel would be cheaper made. That's a lot of money to waste. Peace of mind I guess.
