For sale..

I have a pair of lowered monotubes off my 12 RKC. 4,000-5,000 miles on them. They were too stiff for me. Factory checked and sealed. 200 shipped to lower 48.

As for the rear, I am running progressive 430's. I don't have a lot of miles on this set up so I am still dialing it all in. The mono-tubes are a win with 1 clip for me. The 430's are night and day difference from the HD air shocks. Just need to get the 430's set up right and I think I'll be very happy. I will say that the lowered mono-tubes with 1 clip and the 21 inch wheel is a perfect compliment to each upgrade. The steering and handling is better than stock and the stance is perfect without that front end jacked up look.

I am thinking seriously about these. Not too fond of the air shocks.

Love the suspension upgrade...

I have a 2013 Ultra Ltd. Running the monotubes with 2 clips, and 444's with HD springs in the rear. Almost always running two up and with luggage. Best thing I ever did to my Ultra - handling is way better then stock, although a firm ride.

Do you still have them? I'm interested.
