Sounds easy! I need some more stuff in the fairing since I ripped out all that CB and intercom wiring harness. Man what a mess that was. LOL

just got done this install on a 09 electra glide, 1.5 clearence in fender well when all the way down, only place i could find to put pump easily on the abs bike is in the fairing above radio, not sure i like it beacuase the only spot in ride heigth that rides smooth i about 3/4s the way up and that looks like the bike is jacked up in the rear, i wanted to get the rear of the bike lower and that didint happen the sitting height all the way down is about the same as stock shocks and 2" lowering kit prolly going to be pulling this off if anybody wants to buy it

What shocks did you use? Mine only has about 1/8 of an inch of clearance with no air. Just got back from a 2 up test ride and the wife loved the way it rides. Last 40 miles was with NO air due to my screw up. Still wasnt bad at all. Ran 75 and 80 with no air and she didnt complain once!

Drop me a PM if you decide to sell, I might be interested in pump, solenoids, etc. What shocks did you use?
