Default 07 FLHX 21" wheel question

Wanting to install an 07 wheel on a 09. Anyone know what all needs to be changed out to make it work? Axle and spacers maybe?

07 was the last year for the 1" axle. 08 up uses a 25mm axle. Change the bearings to 25mm and use the 09 axle and spacers. Brakes are different as well between 07 and 09 so the rotors may have to be changed.
