In my opinion you are far better off sending your stock shocks to "Bitchin Baggers" to have them modified to fit your needs. And it's not that expensive at all ethier. Great people to deal with also.

I don't see how any lowering kit can claim to keep OE shocks angle, only way not to change angle is shorter shocks but via reduced shocks travel which = harsh ride , but HD rear shocks already has pretty harsh ride. Don't lower it unless you really need to.

I had white brothers on my 06 for a while, it changed the trail a little bit was stiffer ride, when I went to 18" had to go back to stock because of fender-tire contact

stevefxdl-where do you get the J&D lowering kit.
Thanks everybody for the replies. I have the Bitchin Baggers mod done to my shocks and had them set for 12" but I was hoping to be able to get a little smoother ride with the longer shock. The problem is: I really need it lowered because of my short legs.
