Did it seem to raise the height of your street glide. Just put a set on my road glide utltra and it does not seem to set any lower. I had to raise the jack to get the shocks to fit. That seems like they are a little longer. I quess if it didn't raise your street glide it had to lower my road glide.

I have the 940's on my 08 Road Glide. They were longer when I installed them than the 1" lowered HD air shocks, but went down to the same height once the jack was down and the weight of the bike was on them. They are 1" lower than stock. Does the Road Glide Ultra come stock with the 1" lower shocks? I know the Street Glide does.
