30amp relay
3 position switch from auto store

That's what I have waiting in the garage
You got it! You shouldn't need any extra line. Plenty comes with the shocks.

oh yeah ..and I have about 1-1/2" of clearance as well from my tire ..and fender/ wiring..on stock 16" white walls and a 1" drop kit.
I will be going with a 2" drop kit and a lower profile tire to get the extended bags on the ground...with bump stop of course...
10" of travel? I'd like to see that thing at the top!

Any 12v NC solenoid will work. Look here they have small ones.

Absolutely sold on doing this mod! Just wondering if it will work on a '12SG? Will look @ starting this project after the holidays. Starting an install of 12" monkey bars tomorrow. Will be following this thread for any updates.

Anyone try this on a Road King yet. I have abs so behind the panel is out, and with no fairing not sure where I would mount this without taking up space in one of the bags.
