I actually did a lot of homework on this. I ended up going with the STA-BO. http://www.sta-bo.com/

I got them in the mail and started to install them. The instructions are not that great but I did have my bike level and in the air.
I ended up calling STA-Bo and asked "are you sure this is it?" just a couple of bushings? Took about 20 min to install and they worked great. I really did have a noticeable wobble and it went away. That was about a year ago. Some claimed to have extra vibration but not for me. Everything is perfect...

You can find them on ebay for a little less.

Good luck.
Tom

There are about a dozen of these things out there. I have True-Track kits on my Glide and Dyna. Original and best!

I installed the Progressive link on my 08 FLHX last week. Works as advertised.

I have the Ride Str8, which is almost identical to the Progressive link. The progressive link is a little less expensive, and would be the one I'd buy today.
