Upgraded Shocks for Street Glide?
Anyone have a recommendation for improved ride. Am considering the Progressive 440's - can anyone tell me what length/model number needed and if they are a significant improvement?

RE: Upgraded Shocks for Street Glide?
I have a SG, hated the ride of the lowered suspension. Went on ebay and purchased standard air shocks that were off a '05 Ultra that was converted to a trike. Paid $47. I now love the ride. It's like night and day. Very smooth, no more harsh wacks that I was getting with the lowered shocks.

Progressive's are supposed to be a night and day difference. Try doing a search for Progressive and should be able to find the info..
I wanna say they are either 11 or 11.5" shocks you will be wanting. I'm planning on changing mine over the winter also.

stock height for a e-glide is 13" the sg i belive use the lower 12" version of the oem air suspension.
i run 11 1/2" progressive 440's on my e-glide
i just put a set of 11 1/2" on the other halfs new 06 e-glide and its riding as good if not better than stock
for about 150.00 less than 440's
