Yes they will. You could also find some street glide 12" shocks and ditch the lowering blocks.

Is there something wrong with lowering blocks? Considering getting some. Sorry to hijack the thread.

I've used them and didn't have any issues in the past on a road king. I have heard that the changing the shock angle can have effect on the handling but again I didn't notice.

I've had my lowering blocks (LA Chopper) ones for about 4 months with no issues just wanted to make sure they would work with the Harley premium shocks.

The style lowering blocks I have wouldn't work with the HD premium shocks. the bottom of the spring was too low an hit the lowering bracket. I picked up some 12" premiums an I think they are a nice improvement if you get a good deal on them...under $250, I got mine for under $200 shipped. A lot of people say the run the lowering blocks for thousands of miles with no problems an some say they can break an cause a dangerous situation an they alter the geometry. I might try to use them with some spacers an longer grade 8 bolts to add some clearance.
