Does anyone have any experience with the Chrome Lowers on eBay that you can buy? There are a couple of different vendors but all appear to be factory H-D lowers that are chrome plated with a two year warrantee. I don't want to buy them and go through the hassle of the install if they are going to pit and/or rust.
I recently put a chrome Agitator wheel up front, and now it seems like a half finished front end.
I bought these off of Ebay. They are very nice, and both sides are done. I think the insides on the ones from Harley are not chrome? I would buy another set from them.
I got a set from a vendor in Texas in Dec. I just put them on my 2013 Electra glide on Easter weekend I was happy with the chrome, they came with lowers, cow bells, chrome drain screws and chrome bolts for the calipliers but no wheel spacers. I payed $310 which is a lot cheaper than HD. I guess time will tell how long that they will last.
I don't think harley will give you a two year warrantee.
I bought the HD "kit". It included everything. Chrome axle covers, cowbells, screws, everything. So if you compare with 20% online discount, maybe a better deal.
The H-D Kit P/N: is about $356 at a 20% off online retailer. It's not clear what all it comes with, but I believe it's only the lowers, no other hardware or cowbells....
46335-08 is the one I saw for $466, and it comes with everything. So price out all the little pieces. Plus consider that you can sell your stock sliders and recoup some of your money. You can net $60-70 on the stock sliders, maybe more.
