07 to 08 Front Wheel Change
 \\;I have a 2007 Roadking Custom \\;and want to put \\;a front wheel from \\;a 2008 \\;Street Glide on. \\; The axle sizes are \\;different \\;from 07 to 08. \\; \\;If I use the 08 \\;axle and spacers on my 2007 King? \\; And then use the 07 \\;axle and spacers for the 08 \\;Street Glide. \\; \\;Will this work? \\; The forks will be \\;issue if there \\;is any. \\; \\; \\;

The brake rotors are also different from '07 to '08. \\;\\\\\\; The '08 brake rotors are slightly bigger than the '07's so you'd have to swap those as well along with the Brembo calipers[sm=outcold.gif]. \\;
Your easiest solution is to stay within your model year unless someone else see's something that I may have missed.

RE: 07 to 08 Front Wheel Change
the 08's have a 25mm bearing and axle. \\; If you were to put the 08 wheel on the 07, you would need to change out the bearings to fit your 07 axle and possibly have to change/have some new axle spacers made. \\; He is right about the 08 rotors. \\; they have a slightly larger diameter, however, you can bolt on your 07 rotor to the 08 wheel. \\; HD didn't change the bolt hole pattern on the hubs. \\; Hope this helps!
